If you’ve paid attention to my Twitter bio or have followed this blog for some time, you know that I am a lefty. I actually have a category called Being a lefty. Being a left-handed person in a right-handed world can be annoying, and I like to write about it from time to time. I’m also […]
My genius lefty
OK, so the post title is a bit presumptuous. I’m not entirely sure that Biz is a genius. He’s probably not. (I hope not. Geniuses seem to be extremely misunderstood.)
