My job doesn't necessarily require it. When I have had the chance of being in front of an audience I'm ok as long as I'm well prepared (stating the obvious here, right?). Without a doubt, my favorite part is meeting new people, exchanging ideas and hearing stories of what I've inspired them to create.patricia zapatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06499012126408164663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35758167.post-23960308647223035392008-10-21T15:11:00.000-07:002008-10-21T15:11:00.000-07:00I agree with Rich.
