He is a member of the California Writer’s Club, Mt. Diablo Branch. Don received his A.A. in Speech Arts from San Diego Mesa College, his B.A. in English and Comparative Literature from the University of California, San Diego, and his M.A. in Education from Chapman University. He has been a credentialed secondary teacher for seven years.

Don began his writing career with novels: a science fiction novel (Future Tense), a comedy/action (Plane Foolishness), an adult fantasy (LaSola of the Singing Bow), a novel based around education, (The Grindstone), and a sports comedy (The Jersey Jupiters). He then wrote a surrealistic comedy stageplay based on the life of Sigmund Freud, (Sigi and Carl). Deciding that dialogue was his strength, he wrote two screenplays: an epic historical drama, (Zenobia) and a satire, (Uplifting Thoughts), and is currently finishing a fantasy/comedy screenplay (Miranda’s Magic) for the young teen market. All screenplays are WGAW registered.";s:6:"emails";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:7:"primary";s:4:"true";s:5:"value";s:27:"metacognitionblog@yahoo.com";}}s:3:"ims";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:4:"type";s:5:"yahoo";s:5:"value";s:55:"http://contributor.yahoo.com/user/703117/don_maker.html";}}s:8:"accounts";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:6:"domain";s:12:"linkedin.com";s:7:"display";s:12:"linkedin.com";s:3:"url";s:48:"http://www.linkedin.com/pub/don-maker/16/861/102";s:8:"username";s:12:"linkedin.com";s:8:"verified";s:4:"true";s:9:"shortname";s:8:"linkedin";}}s:4:"urls";a:0:{}}}}
