‘Defining moments’ and a Black Sheep…

Posted on September 14, 2015 by Sue Vincent

A little while ago, Sally Cronin invited me over to Smorgasbord for an interview. The piece Sally crafted, with the depth of her personal research was a real eye-opener for me about how an interview could be done.

Yesterday, Sally reposted that interview, taking me quite by surprise… You can read it at her blog by clicking the link here.

You can also read about Sally too… when she guested on my blog and named herself as a Black Sheep….

As for me, I shall simply say, thank you very much, Sally!

… and as for me, I have birthday cards to open that run to double figures… and yes, two does count as double figures… and a new book to be getting on with, if I am allowed… 🙂

I re-read that interview yesterday, and still don’t know how you ever find the time in your day! I hope you had/have a wonderful birthday Sue, and you make time to pamper yourself! You certainly deserve it 🙂
