The Diarists


We are Sue Asbury, David Hughes and Mike Reed - two designers and a writer. Sue is part of Asbury & Asbury and tweets as @suejanea. David leads David & Associates, and tweets as @david_hughes. Mike trades as Reed Words, and tweets as both @mikebreed and @reedwords. We've done this before: in 2007 and, abortively, in 2008.
