Encouraging a culture of written communication
I love this topic.I like writing. I've been writing all my life.In the last couple of years, I have taken to building a "personal brand," by writing about the way that I design and develop software.It's been really good for me. I find that it helps me to consolidate and focus my thinking. It also helps me to feel accountable, and I'm a big believer in accountability.If I write something, it had better be true and accurate.I often review everything that I write in public, and make even small grammatical corrections (I miss one, every now and then, though).I also like reading. I devour books; usually escapist fiction. The first non-child book I ever read was Where Eagles Dare, by Alistair MacLean. I started reading because I lived in Africa, and the TV sucked.
