I think I took the metaphor more to heart than others. I like to think of myself as a good storyteller. I can explain pretty in depth computer science topics to my business team who lack technical knowledge pretty well through stories. My problem seems to be translating this to software structures.

I wish I could be as good of a "writer" in my software, but I am always looking to others for the best practices. In this case, I am always in a constant state of doubt and "writers block", I need to figure out how to unleash my own creativity.

Your blog archive (where the title links to) seems to be broken.

Weird it just worked fine for me. http://infiniteundo.com/archive/filter-by/text

Oh, don't mind. My network connection was the one that had a problem.

what does [counterintuitive.][going_there] mean?

Based on the other usages in the article, it looks like some kind of link syntax like in markdown or wikitext, but it isn't being parsed/replaced. If so, then it just means "counterintuitive."

LOL I am the author and I didn't know what that comment meant when I saw it above!! Derp and I will go fix my broken links now :) Thanks for the heads up!
