Narrative:

I was flying at FL230 and talking with center. My engine sputtered and I lost power. I was able to glide to ZZZ airport and landed safely. No traffic was affected by my emergency landing. I called clearance delivery to let them know how I was ok. I said that they would pass the information along to center. I was not told to do any paperwork; but I wanted to send this in just in case.
