Literary Work
Mason's first book of non-fiction, Head Cases: Stories of Brain Injury and Its Aftermath, chronicles the years he spent as a brain-injury case manager and tells the stories of twelve individuals who survived brain injury.
While a contributing editor for Discover magazine, Mason wrote the article, "Dead Men Walking", which triggered a national debate about the treatment of brain-injured veterans of the Iraq War. As an independent radio producer, Mason has created works that have appeared on several public radio stations.
Mason is the founding editor of This Land Press, a publication based in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Famous quotes containing the words literary and/or work:
“... my last work is no sooner on the stands than letters come, suggesting a subject. The grandmothers of strangers are crying from the grave, it seems, for literary recognition; it is bewildering, the number of salty grandfathers, aunts and uncles that languish unappreciated.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
“A work of art is above all an adventure of the mind.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
