{Fixing} It's the library Bill left behind, which I gave to the Post to keep his passion for editing close at hand at the place where he worked for 20 years. Also, a piece he wrote about this library of his, along with a wider shot, though still not the entire thing. JDLand

Hire a professional writer. It makes all the difference.

It's JDLand here, tweeting as Bill Walsh (RIP) to keep his account and the archive of his brilliance active.
