We always have a great time talking, and that podcast was no exception. He makes me sound quite coherent!

Matt Heusser interviewed me about my new workshop with Rebecca Wirfs-Brock about Agile Architecture.

My column on Gantthead.com is up: Agile Architecture and Program Myths.

Enjoy!

First, I came down with a bad head cold. It’s almost funny, watching a person with vertigo and a head cold try to walk. Unless you are that person ;-) Then Daughter #2 contracted mono. Then the rains came and my office flooded–twice. I’ve spent a bunch of time the last few weeks camped out in the kitchen. Of course, my column deadlines don’t wait, so I managed to write them anyway. I hope you enjoy them.

My Stickyminds.com column, Are You Making Progress or Spinning Your Wheels? received no comments, which surprised me. Maybe because I didn’t know it had published?

My Gantthead.com column is titled, How to Say ‘No’ the Agile Way. (That wasn’t my title when I sent it in. I have to talk to the titlers!)
