About Me
Welcome to davidmorefield.com! Here you’ll find everything you ever wanted to know about David Morefield, but were afraid to ask. Like, for example, “Who’s David Morefield?”
Well, for starters, I’m someone with sufficient hubris to put a “dot-com” behind his name, so that should tell you something right off the bat. I originated this site as a means to advertise my work as a freelance writer on web- and print-based projects, and also as a showcase for some of the web design work I’ve done over the years. Over time, it became more of an on-line journal for me, first in an early version of Movable Type, later powered by Blogger and now a product of Word Press. Here you’ll find my thoughts on news and happenings that interest me, as well as updates on my kids and personal life.
As a freelance copyrighter, I’ve worked on a wide variety of advertising/marketing projects including direct mail packages, newsletters, magazine ads, bouncebacks, and so on. Much of my writing has been done for the Web. As a co-founder of the (now demised) James Bond fansite “Mr. KissKiss BangBang,” I wrote lots of articles examing the world of 007. One of them, dealing with Bond’s connections to early 20th century pulp literature was reprinted in the January 2002 issue of the British magazine, “Thriller UK.”
For the June 2002 issue of the men’s magazine, “Razor,” I contributed “Pulp Fever,” a retrospective on the great American pulp novels and their colorful heroes. More recently, I authored an essay for the book, “James Bond in the 21st Century: Why We Still Need 007,” part of the “Smart Pop” series of anthologies from BenBella Books. Also, a pair of articles from my Superman site were exhibited at the American Textile History Museum in Lowell, Mass. from January through May, 2002.
As a web designer, I’ve done sites for a local art gallery and an Ohio-based knifemaker.
Hope you enjoy your visit here. Thanks for stopping by!
