than it does to rush the details and get it all wrong, just to have to figure
out the wrongness of it all, then go back in and fix it up to rights again.“

Re., the Category & Tag Descriptions for this website

These truisms have been drilled into my head since I was a small child, to the point that – now, as an adult – I quite often get bogged down in the “preparing everything so I can do it right” stage so that I never get around to the actual doing of it.  That’s part of the point of this website – to stop over-preparing and get to actually factually doing and sharing the things that I want to share about doing.

It’s really hard to make a website that talks about all that if you can’t put those things into coherent words.  As an author, it’s ever important to me that the words I use – especially my public words or things like the Category and Tag descriptions for any post that I make – be precisely accurate descriptions of those topics about which I write.

In keeping with all that, I’ve taken an afternoon here at the outset of website creation to complete all of the Category and Tag descriptions that I plan to use and pledge to complete the same for any that get added in the future.  It’s important to me that you – my readers – find it easy to navigate to those posts or projects about which you most want to read; defining my terms upfront – so that it’s easier for you to succeed with any given Search – is the best means at my disposal to making that happen.

Happy reading, writing, searching, making, and doing, dear peeps!
