Gettysburg, Pa

As with all of my clients, my job is to report accurately and engagelingly on the issues being addressed. My work either as a columnist, reporter, feature writer, and promotional material is informed by 30 years of experience in the field

“We begin…in winter, when everything is cold, and seems dead. But we know better...”So writer, blogger and essayist T.W. Burger winds up the introduction to his “Year of The Moon Goose,” a collection of columns, commentary and poetry that tell the story of a year on the banks of Marsh Creek, on the southern fringes of the Gettysburg Civil War battlefield, and in his vegetable and flower garden.“This is not a book that will teach you how to garden, or fish, for that matter,” he writes, “On the other hand, if you want to discover Moon Goose crying on the water at midnight, and that it is perfectly all right to let your imagination come along on a year in one ordinary man’s garden on a hill above a creek full of music and wonder, well, this might be just the book for you.”Burger spent nearly 30 years as a newspaper reporter, but he has dabbled in radio and television, and between the ages of 17 and 35 he worked as everything from an apprentice mortician, garbage man, and concrete mixer driver. Each of those experiences had their influences on his perceptions as he went to work reporting on a series of newspapers, spending the final decade of his career at The Patriot-News in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania’s capital.These days, Burger, now semi-retired, has more time in his garden.“My neighbors sometimes see me standing in the garden, leaning on a hoe and staring at nothing,” he reports. “It’s not what they think…I’m writing, or thinking about a thing that will be written. Trust me; it’s harder than it looks.”Yeah, his neighbors don’t usually believe him, either.So, put on some loose, comfortable work clothes – Burger prefers bib overalls – put on a hat to keep the sun out of your eyes, and stop in for a visit. At best, you’ll spend some delightful hours hearing some great stories. At worst...well, a little hoeing never hurt anybody.
