Written Works

The following is a list of my written works for other publications.

The publications are in alphabetical order and the works are listed in the order they were published, with the most recent works first. For the record, the list of works for the Positive Psychology Program are all articles that I either initially wrote or was the primary re-writer on; it is possible that I am now a partial contributor or unlisted previous contributor on some of those works.

The list of publications is followed by a list of the academic papers I have been a co-author on, and this page finally concludes with some of the websites I’ve developed.
