Good advice. When my “editor” is available ( she is a freelancer and very busy keeping the wolves at the door) my pieces look and read better. Also taking time to cool down ( if the piece is passionate) is also a good idea.

Thanks Ryan

@ryanopaz Well, incomprehensible might be a better description – but, did WE post that??

@Sedimentblog I would argue that a;sdfg:LDL0aternwet is pretty illegible!

“What we need in the end is legibility”

Only if there’s something wrong with your screen resolution.

What you need in the end is clarity. And a sub-editor

Really interesting and challenging thoughts Ryan. As a writer with one foot in the old media and one in the new – I know just how hard it is to not do the obvious or expected. I will have this article as a constant reminder this year to at least try something different!

Dear Ryan, and Brett, on behalf of the Outsiders, we look forward to seeing you both at this event next month (February 2012, in Montpellier, France). We wanted to do something different… so we’re doing away with tasting note speak and replacing it with pictures. It may not work, not everyone will get it, but hopefully it will inspire a few to think outside the box, and encourage more wine lovers to come into the fold. http://www.facebook.com/louise.hurren#!/events/357887704226742/

Thank you for these thoughts. Let’s drink to the 99%!
