Hi Rocky!
I Hope you are having a great birthday! Are you still in el nuevo mexico? I bet you have gotten lots of great presents with Christmas and now the b-day too! I just got back from the Midwest and had a pretty random photo shoot with my lady friend yesterday. It was a "bonus" for buying some wedding photography where they took some emotional "couple" shots. It was really too much and I had to sit on some cold concrete for a staged shot and today by bum is sore :) ! Well that's enough about me let me once again wish you a great day, have fun!

The Elements of Style

I have just read a little book that seems to FLY in the FACE of all that we stand for here at Random Sketchy Brainfart. However I did find it quite helpful to read for other writing actions. It is called the ELEMENTZ of STYLE by Strunk and White. What I was thinking was this can we propose some rules to how to work with email writing to make a new instructional writing guideline? For example how quickly should responses be given? Are paragraphs useful? and how about signing your name? I would like to propose a new project of RSBF if anyone has any "LITTLE GEMS" that they use with their email writing just tag your entry: email
