One thing I’ve noticed lately is that both Carman and I have been getting more and more wordy. So today I’m resolved to keep my message short!
I’ve often quoted someone (a quotation variously attributed: Mark Twain, Proust, Pliny the Younger, Winston Churchill) who wrote “I’m sorry this letter is so long; I didn’t have time to write a short one!”
All really good writers truly appreciate a good editor, whose job is to ensure the message is polished to the most concise way of making a clear statement.
I beg your forgiveness for the times I’ve rambled and failed to clearly and concisely convey my thought. And now that you are finished reading, have a nice long good day.

Ah, brevity. Wit's... something-or-other.
