"Never assume you know it all. Just like doctors, writers need to continue to get better at writing which means going to events to be around other authors. Conferences, workshops and book launch parties not only support authors but help to gain experience from the best."

Sandra's advice "Never assume you know it all. Just like doctors, writers need to continue to get better at writing which means going to events to be around other authors. Conferences, workshops and book launch parties not only support authors but help to gain experience from the best." applies to everyone in business not just authors. Thanks for the inspiration and encouragement, Sandra.

You are absolutely right Carla! Thanks for your support!
