Creating the characters for “The Old Compass” was the natural progression of my life experience. I am a father of three kids who have grown up handling life’s struggles and good time as best as they could. In the same light, “The Old Compass” adventures are reflections of a kid’s life, the hard choices they must make in their day to day interactions and in building their characters.
The adventures have some teenagers and kids as their main characters but these stories are designed for kids up to about 12 years old. They are designed to challenge, entertain, provoke and interact. We certainly don’t claim to have all the answers for kids, but we would like the characters to become their friends and walk with the listeners.

Carefully, he skated his way through the crowded hallway, but despite his efforts, bumped into someone. He dropped his belongings, and his books, tablets, and pencils sprawled across the newly-waxed floor. I watched as high school students kicked the boy’s things, laughing and insultingly saying, “Oops! Hurry up! You’re going to be late!”
Just when I was about to intervene, a tall blonde-haired senior stopped directly in front of the seventh grader to block others from knocking the boy’s belongings even further away. He bent down and began helping the boy pick up his things.
The hallways were starting to clear as they finished collecting what had fallen. “Do you know where you’re going next,” the senior asked.
