Role
    Artist --> Writer/ Presenter

Reflection - I am told I write as I talk, and that is probably not the most generous observation - as I know I sometimes ramble when I talk...and I suppose it is true I do the same thing when I write. I actually like to write - some things - and when I do write, feel that I can make myself understood. I appreciate that it is sometimes roundabout, which is why I tend to like to give my writing to someone else to edit and format. Still, I think I am articulate, have strong lexicon to draw from and can write in a style that is not hard to read.

I am a much better presenter than writer. I can develop strong presentations that meet the best principles of presentation design. I tend to present in areas with which I am comfortable enough to go off the beaten track, and ad-lib when necessary. I can engage my audience in presentations so as to keep the presentation active - and in such practice to resist the poor practices of those who give meaning to "death by powerpoint".
