About the Author
As the founder of Get Your Writing Done and author of The 12 Week Year for Writers, my mission is to help people reach their goals by helping them to become the most productive writers they can be. In my day job I am an associate professor of international security in the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University. I am also a Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute in the Defense and Foreign Policy group. I have spent the past 20 years using the 12 Week Year to manage my own writing. I have used the system to publish seven books and edited volumes, a host of academic articles and book chapters, and scores of op-eds and commentaries. My academic and policy research revolves around the intersection of international security, political communication, and public opinion. I also publish commentary on current affairs in a wide range of publications, including the Washington Post, USA Today, Philadelphia Inquirer, Detroit News, Huffington Post, Newsweek, Time, The National Interest, and Foreign Policy, and I occasionally pop up on television. I received my B.A. from the University of Michigan and my Ph.D. in political science from M.I.T. where I was a member of the Security Studies Program.
