Remember the
clever billboards in front of a synagogue
that have been brightening up a nearby street?
The synagogue hasn't had any visitors since March,
but that writer has been busy making drivers smile.
Here are more examples of sparse writing,
where every word counts.
Thou shalt not covid thy neighbour's wife.
2020 is hindsight.
In my copywriting days, the layout came first and I had to fit my copy into it.
I had to count words. Sometimes I had to count characters.
That was excellent training for other kinds of writing.
I appreciate this writer's economy of words and sense of humour.
