Brevity: It’s a Skill.

Not being vague, but concise. Giving exactly the amount of detail required, no more, no less. It isn’t just being blunt, nor is it the gift of omission. As a long winded person whom prefers to write micro short stories, it is simply a must. Learn it. Use it. Enjoy it. We are, all of us, better off for it.

Being able to distill complex ideas down and explain them without volumes of text is challenging. Ask anyone who has to write a precis of any written work. Hard number counts and being brief is difficult to master. What to keep, and what is covered under the umbrella of what is kept is a high level thinking, big picture challenge. Try it. Tougher than it looks.

Finally here on Thursday. Christmas will be here in four more days. All this build up and poof! Gone by 8:00am Christmas morning. Soak it in while you can. All the best. Ciao Bella!
