Well it is that time of the year again, and I am going to approach things differently this time. I realize I need a base story and themes that rely heavily on prior knowledge so I can just get words to paper.
I wish I had time to do some more extensive research for the other ideas I wanted to work on, but that has not be possible as I wrap up other things. So I have less than a week to figure out the focus of the story.
Anyone want to be challenge buddies this year?

A simple form can have a lot more going on than its design suggests. I wrote a little about how working across design and engineering has changed the way I think about building things.
A lot goes into simple forms.
A selection of my long-form writing across two worlds: magazine features and research-driven thought leadership.
Features: For Lux Lifestyle Magazine, I report and write cover-level stories on luxury, travel and the people behind them. "Run for the Roses" takes readers inside the luxury side of the Kentucky Derby through interviews with Churchill Downs, Woodford Reserve's Master Distiller and a milliner to Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. "House of Zhivago" profiles a founder building cruelty-free luxury fashion. Twelve cover stories across three magazines.
Thought leadership: For SoftwarePricing Partners, I turned complex, data-heavy topics, like AI pricing models and monetization, into clear, readable guidance for executives. This content was part of a program that grew the firm's share of AI search citations from 26% to 42% in eight weeks.
What ties it together: finding the human story inside the research, and writing it so people read to the end.
A milliner for Beyoncé and Taylor Swift in one Derby feature? That hat has a better guest list than most parties.
