I've been in a bit of a writing rut lately. So I revisited my old notes from Deirdre N. McCloskey’s #EconomicalWriting. Sharing a few gems: 1️⃣ Write all the time. Research is writing 2️⃣ Read out loud, if you cringe saying it, don’t write it 3️⃣ REWRITE. Easy writing = hard reading

It's #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth. Our survivor, Margaret Okello has something to say. Let's learn from her and screen early enough!! We are open for free cancer screening every day of the week from 8:00am to 5:00pm. Early detection+ right treatment guarantees cure!
