I have a rule, I don't form an opinion of a storyteller's skills until I have heard them tell at least three times. We all have difficult days and and as the years go on, hopefully our skills are honed. <br /><br />Thank you for your insight and honesty.<br />Karen Chacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12419511205674143737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4089606950704876439.post-62671444771672974012013-11-18T18:43:29.627-05:002013-11-18T18:43:29.627-05:00Karen, this is a great article.

She truthfully responded, she hadn't seen me enough. When she had seen me more often and performed with me, she gave a wonderful and truthful recommendation. She has taught me to not just give an opinion because I've only seen one story or, even one performance, but to be a person of integrity when recommending. <br /><br />I really appreciate what you have written, Karen, it's necessary. Much peace, Sheila Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06173604829846874409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4089606950704876439.post-29531606854358126782013-11-17T21:33:24.325-05:002013-11-17T21:33:24.325-05:00Thank you Julie, that is a huge compliment.
