ARGH. I have to try and put together a writing sample for a potential employer and it’s giving me fits. It’s something so basic I don’t know why this is such a problem. I have to go to their site, summarize who they are, the challenges they address and “how you think we can help address these challenges”.

It’s ONE page tops. One. Fucking. Page. And it feels like I’m being asked to write a dissertation. WTF? The position requires writing these things after each call/meeting with a client, so this is obvious stuff. It shouldn’t be this hard.
