Blake Everingham is my new best friend.

"I'd have to say as a designer I enjoy working with writers. It simply opens up creative dialogue. However, I'll be blunt: I hate not having the same capacity for beautiful wording, thus working with a writer is also frustrating. Purely from my own lacking as a writer though. Otherwise, it's fun."

Blake, you say the nicest things. And you're the only contributor (thus far) from Across The Pond. Thanks.

As always, these things go both ways. When I'm working with a designer and they come up with some perfect, elegant visual idea, there's a big part of me going, "Bastard. I wish I could do that." But I love it too - it shakes the brain out of its verbal rut, and helps me think in new ways. Which is the whole point behind this dialogue I'm hoping to encourage. So thanks, Blake.
