Hi, Lisa, thanks for sharing that new post.

I love your quote: “write from the heart using concrete knowledge and examples.”

Good advice for everyone on Earth!

I’ll look forward to meeting you in person the next time,

Evan

Hi Evan,

too bad we didn’t get to talk. So many people and wonderful discussion. Thanks for mentioning my initial reaction post. I enjoy reading the diverse responses which are coming out of this brief event.

I have also written another post stemming from a post-conference discussion I had with Valerie Tinley. It can be found at http://brassandivory.blogspot.com/2009/07/not-typical-patient.html

Thanks again,
Lisa

Thanks for putting this together.

Thanks for the comments, guys.

Val, I’m glad to help. Lots of interesting reactions out there, Kerri is right they are very diverse.

It was great meeting you, Evan! (And I remain a very loyal fan of Nip/Tuck … after my newfound love for Ryan Reynolds, that is.)

I’ve enjoyed reading the round up of posts – there are some very diverse, but insightful perspectives here, and well worth sharing. Thanks for compiling them!

Wow, thanks for the round up, Evan. You just saved me a boatload of time! So glad you could join us… It’s always good to have a friendly lawyer around, just in case…
