EXHIBITS etc.

These pieces represent one thing that I do professionally: research and write labels and interactive scripts for museum exhibits. I love doing the research; it inspires my writing and helps inform the exhibit message. At the other end I also like to make the final editorial pass, just to ensure that all the dots and squiggles are where they belong.
