I am only half-way through the book, but I was looking at the back for your contact information and came across this little blog.<BR/><BR/>When I received the book (on a Friday), I took it home for the weekend and could barely put it down.<BR/><BR/>I love the simplicity and the way you "tell it like it is". I have been in the administrative field for almost 40 years and I am a secretary at heart and always will be. I must say, I have learned a few things already, but can definitely relate to about 98 per cent of your book so far.<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much and I intend to come back to your blog often.<BR/><BR/>PattyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575777839312205471.post-17465726444229155952008-05-27T23:58:00.000-04:002008-05-27T23:58:00.000-04:00At first I considered whether I should write Ameri...At first I considered whether I should write American English because I noticed many of my readers were from the States, but then decided to go with what I knew best. Plus, I'm kind of proud of the way 'we' write things. <BR/><BR/>Of course, being a virtual assistant you would have to write the language of your clients. <BR/><BR/>I enjoy your blog Denise. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for the virtual assistant. <BR/><BR/>P.S. I lived in Fort McMurray, Alberta, for a few years and have been to Calgary many times. Beautiful country out there...Patricia Robbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09077127934947422705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575777839312205471.post-51742194465608307682008-05-27T15:03:00.000-04:002008-05-27T15:03:00.000-04:00Thanks Patricia, for setting a few things straight...Thanks Patricia, for setting a few things straight! I live in Calgary, but I don't wear a cowboy hat (except for 10 days each year, during the Calgary Stampede).<BR/><BR/>Most of my clients and subscribers are American, though, so I use American English when I write to them.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01232157119033255113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575777839312205471.post-12881927335973324912008-05-26T16:25:00.000-04:002008-05-26T16:25:00.000-04:00Hilarious!
