The personal side of Keith
As a self-proclaimed "learning junkie," Keith enjoys reading non-fiction autobiographies, mystery and suspense thrillers, playing golf (18 handicap), volunteering with his local church and community philantropic activities. He writes part-time with the goal of completing one novel a year. Since 1998, he has authored ten published novels and enjoys coaching new fiction writers. His desire to coach derives from his passionate interest in helping others become attuned to their creative powers of storytelling. Keith just completed a collection of his poetry for publication as well as a novel about a psychologist who finds himself immersed with the mob in Los Angeles, California.
 Keith considers his top five signature strengths to be:
- Industry, diligence, and perseverance
- Fairness, equity, and justice
- Hope, optimism, and future-mindedness
- Judgment, critical thinking, and open-mindedness
- Spirtuality, sense of purpose, and faith
