Dear Reader,
Thanks for taking the time to write. I really appreciate it.
From my Email Bag:
"Dear Suzanne, You are my inspiration.
I am the Director of IT for an engineering firm. At my goal planning session last December, my boss told me that I must send out one e-mail per month to my user community (2500 employees) about e-mail etiquette. I'm not a writer, nor an expert on e-mail, nor an extrovert, so the task was quite daunting.
Each month, I sit down at my computer, stare at the screen and think 'oh my goodness, how am I ever going to write this?' Then I think of you and your columns, how you have to think of something every day, and how much I and other readers like your personal and engaging style. I then read a few of your e-mails and pretty soon I am typing away. Once I get started, you know what? The words flow like honey and I am having a good time. Then comes that moment when it is time to hit 'Send'. What if they hate it? What if they tell me to quit wasting their time?
I take a deep breath and hit 'Send' and what comes back? Lots of thanks, some very good questions, and no hate mail.
Thanks for the inspiration and for being a great teacher!"--Lisa
