Designing and writing, writing and designing...it's all communication

Having just spent a rainy Sunday writing an article for Ink Publications, I sure wish I had found this resource on Saturday. But perhaps if that were the case I would have spent all day Sunday reading Daphne Gray-Grant's Article Archive on helpful tips and resources for those of us who write for publication. Features include such topics as "Why speed counts when it comes to writing", "The art of the interview", "The three biggest mistakes that website writers make" and many more excellent articles. If you write you must check out Daphne's site and also sign up for her free newsletter. (Daphne's site found via PagePlane an excellent design blog and resource found via Designers-Who-Blog)

Nice Things People Say

Art On Groton Bank
"I am very impressed with the work Lisa has done for us in this short time. She has a light touch, very appealing and attractive, plus real style." Audrey Heard
David Black regarding an INK feature arts article:
"I was just handed the most incredible magazine article that I think has ever been written about me. It is just fantastic and people are presenting me with copies of the magazine. Really beautifully written, really beautifully written and no one has ever put all the pieces together as nicely as you have. Thank you so much."
Re: Article on Slater Museum
"Ok, Don't stand in a doorway when you read this as you may become hopelessly lodged... Hang on to your head, an ego boost attached... I love it Lisa. Spot on nicely done, access-able, significant and of a standard. I'm stoked, can't thank you enough, very happy and impressed." Jeff Lilly - INK Publishing
Designers Who Blog Says:
"The Art and Design is written in a easy manner, centred on the design community, and points to discussions I can use...It’s my kind of blog as it keeps on giving."

Cat Morely, "I enjoy your writing and will be checking back with ArtLOOK to keep up what you come up with next. I so envy those who can write well."
The Art Guide
"I am glad you are a perfectionist- You have given us a world-class site that will be an asset to The Guide as we move forward and expand." Matt Holmes, The Art Guide
Artist Julia Rogoff
"I found Lisa Mikulski to be just the right resource at the right time: focused, professional, with a great eye for color and design, and with very fast turnaround time for getting images up on the web -- an artist's best friend and there when you need her! She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
