Mark Steyn: “Great writing is all about rhythm, and Cathy’s was beautiful.”

Eugene Volokh: “What Cathy had was verve. You started her columns or her posts and you couldn’t stop.”

From my remembrance:

After a few months of working with Cathy Seipp, who as of the start of 2004 was writing a quasi-weekly piece for National Review Online, I got a call from her — in the course of which she announced that she normally doesn’t get along with female editors.
You can imagine the nervous pause on my end.
But, she continued, I had proven a pleasant surprise.
(Whew.)
What made her so exciting was that you could always expect uncompromising honesty from her. That’s why I was so glad to have Cathy writing for NRO, and to have her moral support in our common existence as conservative females in the opinion world (and especially the blogosphere, where life can get nasty, as Cathy knew all too awfully well).
