E.B. White would have much to say about my writing. Such as, "For gawds sake woman, cut!"

I think of him EVERY DAY.

EB would be very pleased that you have internalized his editorial voice, Stacy! A kind of immortality for him.

Living this daily in tech. Clients pay for clarity, not complexity. The hardest part of any project is figuring out what NOT to include in the final recommendation.

What's new on your end, Baird?

Happy Wednesday!
