There is another category of person that probably doesn’t fall into the category of “nerd” but is worth mentioning. This person needs to be recognised and acknowledged for the support they give as the writer of regular columns on woodworking, who write with modesty and wit. These people have a small (but loyal?) readership and inspires and reminds those of us that are enthusiastic writers - but who are stuck in a “that’s not good enough to publish ” mindset to just get on with it. Remind you of anyone!?

Great words Matthew! Thank you.
Well said. Sometimes it takes students a few years to realize this.
Thank you David. It really does. Hopefully we can start helping them to realize it sooner than later.
