Chip was my partner when I began
my copywriting journey.
Lizzie was my partner for the next several years.
About Me, Gracie, Blackie, Chip, and Lizzie
Blackie is an old lab
who wasn't getting any looks at a local shelter. I had to adopt him. He's a wonderful guy.
Gracie & me.
I'm John L. Cox.
I live in Southwest Colorado with Gracie, the sweetest Golden Retriever mix ever, and Blackie, our newest team member. We're next-door neighbors to Mesa Verde National Park, and our view is spectacular.
​
I was born and raised in Indianapolis, and for 30 years, I served my communities in what I considered the best job in the world: law enforcement. As a graduate of the FBI National Academy and a two-time Chief of Police, I've had the privilege of leading and serving those I care about deeply.
​
My proudest achievement? I've never lost my love for people and helping them.
​
Throughout my career, I honed my skills in professional writing and led many complex projects to success—projects that required both creativity and precision. These experiences, along with continuous training, have sharpened my skills to an expert level. Some of those skills are listed on the right (or below if you’re on mobile).
​
And I’m still at it—continuing to help people through my unique blend of training, experience, motivation, and enthusiasm. I’m ready to guide your project to success. Contact Gracie and me today—let’s team up and get the job done!

Oh, by the way, my dad used to say you can always trust a man who uses his middle initial.
