      Thanks, Alex!

  2. Margot KinbergJune 21, 2015

    Great links, as ever, Elizabeth, so thanks. I really need to check out some of the ones about fitting promo in. I need to do that better, and still get the writing done, and I don’t think I’ve struck that balance yet…

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigJune 21, 2015

      Margot–It’s a tough balance to hit!

  3. Sue ColettaJune 21, 2015
