The Real Lance Brown

Neato tool. Just check out the gallery of photos that people have taken of their printed-out posters if you don’t believe me.

Plus, it’s free, as is the standalone version.

Hi, and welcome to my home page. I’m Lance Brown, formerly of Dalton, MA, and currently of Grass Valley, CA.

I’m a writer, a website publisher, an activist, an entrepreneur, and a freelance communications and Internet consultant. Among other things.

Here you can find a lot of stuff that has to do to with me:

My Websites

• CampusLP.org has been offering free hosting and e-mail service to student libertarian clubs since 2001. It is now also a “portal” site which has forums, downloadables, and other resources for libertarian student activists.
• PNAC.info was created in 2003 to expose the Project for the New American Century, and now aims to persuade the American public to reject the neoconservative foreign policy approach.
• LettersToMitch.com is an Arrested Development appreciation site that I started in April 2006.
• Freedom2008.com was the website for my presidential campaign, which has been suspended for the time being. I didn’t become president in 2008 (as you probably noticed), but there’s plenty at the site if you’d like to check it out.
• GreenLiberty.org is a site I’ve been toying with for a long time, and which may or may not be finding its second wind about now. (It looks pretty, at least.)

My Creative

• I’ve got a gallery of photos at photos.lancebrown.org. There are some photos of me and political events that I’ve been involved with, but the bulk of the photos are of natural scenery, animals, and pets (including a lot of peacock pictures).
• I’ve written a fair amount of poetry in my day. The poems that I’ve chosen to make public are gathered over at poems.lancebrown.org.
• In recent years I’ve begun to work more on my creative (prose) writing, and that is beginning to bear fruit. A slice of that fruit can be found here on my new writing page.
• I’m putting together an online portfolio featuring most of the things I’ve created, from posters, press releases, and programs, to op-eds, web sites, and various writings. There are already a number of items gathered there, at works.lancebrown.org.

My Résumé and Qualifications

• Here is a page with online versions of my résumé and some of my other qualifications.
• Here is a fairly comprehensive list of the different jobs I’ve had over the past 20 years.

Aside from all that, my interests include reading, animals, the Internet, philosophy, walking with my dogs, revolution, and music. Not necessarily in that order.

The entries that I post here at my lancebrown.org blog are likely to be things that are primarily of interest to myself – I’m using it to gather resources on screenwriting and other writing at this time, mostly.

I’m working to further weave all this stuff into a coherent whole of some sort. And I’m only getting started, in terms of things I want to get done. This is all just the tip of a quite large iceberg. Stay tuned!

Feel free to contact me if you feel moved to do so.

Thanks for your visit!

Be well, be free,

Lance Brown

These are two versions of a Bill of Rights Day large handout. It has a large imitation-scroll-style Bill of Rights poster on one side, and warnings about new threats to the freedoms that document is intended to protect on the other side.

These two versions have two different versions of the second page. The first one is more text-heavy, and the second one is more flyer-like.

Bill of Rights Day 2-sided handout/poster – original text-heavier version
Bill of Rights Day 2-sided handout/poster – modified, more flyer-like NCBORDC* version.

And here is a Microsoft Publisher version (from the original handout in 2001) that can be edited and customized!

*Nevada County Bill of Rights Defense Committee, a coalition group which I co-founded.

This is a press release I wrote for a Bill of Rights Day Rally, from December 2001.

Bill of Rights Day Rally press release

This is the resolution that I drafted for consideration by the Nevada County Board of Supervisors, acknowledging Bill of Rights Day. The resolution was passed unanimously in December of 2001.

This speaking appearance by author, Senate candidate, and Superior Court Judge James Gray took place on January 21, 2004. It was organized by myself and a number of fellow Libertarians.

• Invitation letter to local notable figures

I organized this forum, which took place on March 11, 2003 at the Center for the Arts in Grass Valley, CA. Approximately 200 people attended live, and the event was broadcast live on local radio station KVMR. It was also taped for broadcast on local TV station FCAT (now NCTV).

The poster is intentionally designed with a basic “public notice” style. Thanks go to Mary Nelson for suggesting that style.
