by Pericles, shared by Joanna Young.

Joanna and I met at SOBCon in 2008. We shared more than a lesson or three. She joined me and several others for a walkabout and dinner on Saturday night. The restaurant, food, and company will stay in my mind for years.

Joanna says this about herself:

Writer, blogger, daydreamer, photographer, poet, life long learner, life wide explorer. Creating space for people to write. Including me.

She’s a bright and well spoken person. Not afraid to engage even a stranger like me. I heartily recommend following Joanna Young.
