A Word from Scott Murdock
Even before I started working as a writer, I spent most of my free time around cars and motorcycles.
After spending a decade in public affairs and marketing, I followed my passion and kicked off a career in the world of automotive writing. At first, I sent free stories to anyone who would take them. Now, I’m fortunate enough to work with some of the best auto manufacturers and publications out there.
When I’m not behind a steering wheel or handlebars, I’m at the gym, cooking, playing guitar, or throwing a frisbee for my dog.
