Thank you, THANK YOU, Mark!

For those of you who have never heard me do an interview before, I usually speak. incredibly. slowly. as. if. I. had. a. period. after. each. word. That’s because I’m usually very nervous about interviews. But Mark made the interview feel so easy and comfortable, I felt free to talk to him as a friend, in my usual mile-a-minute way!

Keep up the good work, Mark!
