Watcher’s Council nominations for September 24, 2014
I hope you don’t get bored when, most weeks, I note here that it’s the “usual good stuff” from the Watcher’s Council. I like that phrase because it so accurately describes precisely what happens on a weekly basis at the Council: Council members look at their own week’s worth of writing and pick their favorite piece. Then they look at their own week’s worth of reading and pick their favorite piece. Since my fellow Council members are incredibly smart, well-informed, and well-read . . . well, you end up with the “usual good stuff“:
