He moved to Girard, Kansas, where he became the editor of the socialist newspaper 'The Appeal to Reason,' and subsequently began the Little Blue Books project. He authored several books, including 'Dust,' which is considered a poignant and insightful reflection on human existence and the struggles of life. His literary style often emphasized clarity and conciseness, reflecting his educational objectives.
