The Red Pencil Conference owes me nothing. I gave a well-received talk on some of the best practices from my book, The Copy Editor’s (Life)Style Guide. It was wonderful catching up with old editor friends and getting to know new ones in Lynnwood as a presenter. #EdsGuild2025 #RedPencil2025

The hidden curves of the Gartner hype cycle The traditional Gartner Hype Cycle curve only represents the outcome of 20% of innovations, the paths of the rest are largely hidden from view.

Thank you to @janefriedman.com for the informative keynote this morning at the Red Pencil Conference! I especially appreciated learning about the Gartner hype cycle. If you're curious check out:
