Betsy, co...Hi Patricia! Thanks for hosting Betsy!<br /><br />Betsy, congratulations on your success! I think that when we step outside of our comfort zones, we automatically step up our game because we feel that we need to work extra hard to succeed in an area we're not familiar with. In our comfort zones, we think we know everything and start taking shortcuts.Elisa DeLanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466740168508428362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757567191914795875.post-69891399904001740352011-07-21T10:18:33.009-06:002011-07-21T10:18:33.009-06:00Margot, Alex, and Diane -- thanks for being here t...Margot, Alex, and Diane -- thanks for being here this morning. <br /><br />Alex, I didn't realize your book was called a space opera.
