Writing Portfolio for Phil Rice

---

---

Phil Rice serves as publisher for all Canopic Publishing projects, including online and in-print publications. Phil first began working professionally as an editor and writer in 1989. As a freelance writer, he has been commissioned by Athlon Sports Publications, The Easton Press, The Danbury Mint, the Business Journal, Harte-Hanks, and others. The craftsmanship for the majority of these pieces is necessarily directed toward commercial appeal rather than pure artistic accomplishment, but aesthetic considerations are never ignored.
