    I enjoy reading LeaderTalk and it was fun to hear Becky “shoot from the hip” as she responded to your questions. Sadly, no laughable gaffs. Either you did a good job of editing or she’s actually as smoothly professional as her blog makes her sound.

      We did like 17 takes. Just kidding.

      Becky is a consummate professional. It was great having her on the show. She made me thinking of alternating book authors and bloggers every month. Thanks for listening, and for the comment.
