Deck designer profile story

Combining education and entertainment

On the surface, this is a profile of prominent deck designer-builder Marshall Black, but the feature article also slips in usable deck design details and tips. I wrote this to appeal to the widest reader audience possible. Readers who are building a new deck can learn from Black’s expertise. For everyone else, it’s a mix of a local celebrity profile, a poignant story of a kindness and personal loss, and a preview of a TV series.
