Informal Professionalism.
I'm serious in my lack of formality. I'm willing to draw an uneven line as a separation between work and play.
Yeah, I'm one of those guys who ends up going into work in the wee hours unshaven, wearing a tight fitting graphic tee and trashy-yet-stylish jeans (I would mention my New Rock boots with the metal heel, but I'll wear those with a suit or jeans, either way - best boots I've ever owned).
I'm Will, AKA WFL. I work at a newspaper during the day doing graphic design, pre-press, advertising layout (dummying for those "in the industry"), web design, web development, a little photography, and whatever else they command me to do.
During the evenings and weekends (when I'm not still at the newspaper), I create artwork, take pictures of pretty young ladies, write and record music in a variety of styles, study information security, do freelance web design on the cheap, and also find time for some new media consulting.
Believe it or not, I do have "fun" outside of all that (I obviously enjoy what I do, however). I frequently spend time with a few friends at coffee shops (soy decaf mint latte, decaf earl grey tea), bars (gin & tonic, churchill martini, greyhound, brandy, or a nice glass of shiraz), or wherever else we can be casual (please, no long walks on the beach for me).
Fun fact: I hate the texture of news print. In fact, I hate the texture of most paper.. Which is why I push online as much as I can (of course, it doesn't hurt that the future of news is here, and it is the 'net).
Keep an eye here if you are curious about politics, social issues, music, art, photography, technology, or the newspaper and advertising industry.
