As editor of a small regional magazine in Georgia, one of my favorite contributions was my thoughts on page 8 of every quarterly issue, The Editor’s Pen. My random ideas came in right at 500-words, exactly as the designer instructed. As an editor, I know the importance of that number. I leaned toward topics found in the issue but sometimes I rambled. There were things I wanted to say, and with a forum at my fingertips, why not? No matter if I strayed from topic or inserted a personal quip, one thing always remained the same: the quote.
