I thought this week I would post a little teaser of the style guide I’m writing for our December issue. Since I have a little more time than usual to work on my stories, I ended up collecting a bit more material in my interviews than what’s likely going to see print. I hate wasting good information, so I’ve picked one interview, of the many I really liked, which might not get the attention it deserves in the print version of the story, and presented it below in a Q and A format. Enjoy, and look for the full story this December!
