Instruction Guide for WHG
If you have ever wondered How To interact with me, this could become your “definitive” guide. Health and Medicines: I have very persistent allergies to almost everything that grows: grass, flowers, weeds, trees, bushes, and all their pollens, etc. And I am also allergic to milk except for soy milk; wool; and probably a fewContinue reading “Instruction Guide for WHG”

A Questionnaire for Agilists
I am working on another written piece where the “working title” is “The Agilist: A Series of Perspectives”. So far I have interviewed several folks who call themselves “Agilists” and I am collecting their thoughts and forming an impression of how I want to write about this new Job Title / Skill set.
