I make things: software (see also: Work), music, sounds, drawings (#sketch). This site is where those threads meet.

I’m into playful exploration of a problem space. In code, it’s trying ideas just to see what happens. In music, it’s improvisation. In drawing, it’s loose and fast.

Written #communication is much of what we do. We answer email. Publish posts and comments. Chat. Create user stories. Prompt AIs. By improving our writing skills, we get superior communication for free.

If you were to read one book, then it must be "On Writing Well".

It covers much of what it takes to write great nonfiction.

All with clear, actionable advice: Approach writing as craft. Pause to review and reflect. Rewrite. Simplify. Remove clutter.

Consider this: By stripping sentences to their cleanest components, you could halve a post’s word count. It'd be a quicker, equally informative read. Multiply by the amount of daily posts. What a positive impact that would have on your daily communication!

Read it. Write well.
