Very grateful today for a sassy writer/teacher extraordinaire named Alexandra Franzen!
I don't have words to describe but here are some from those who have worked with her. I have no disclosure here, no affiliate code and nothing to sell, just a deep admiration for someone who truly walks her talk and is here to make big changes for those in creative biz.
- "Alex re-imagined my story, and it felt like DYING and going to heaven. My bio sounded so spectacular, I wanted to hang it and wear it as a necklace."—Melissa Cassera | PR Rockstar & National TV Spokeswoman
- "Alex is a profoundly gifted wordsmith who listens deeply.
She hears the whisper of your soul (and your business) and finds the words to describe the indescribable." —Gemma Stone | Clinical Psychologist - "Alex turns mundane words into magic, casting a spell so that audience's hearts actually beat a little faster, their eyes light up and they nod their heads saying, YEAH! I WANT SOME OF THAT!"—Maria Ross | Chief Brand Strategist, Red Slice
So just wanted to let you know that you should pay her site a visit.
There is muchissimo goodness there!
Right now I'm taking a little course called I♥email from Ms Franzen. Let me tell you that I have been feeling just a tad overwhelmed with the increasing volume of my inbox.
Not complaining because things are going great but just feeling, well, swamped!
So I'm thankful for a little reframing.
Today's mission was to answer every email in Haiku fashion,
to keep it short, simple and poetically snappy....
I think I did ok AND I had a smile on my face :)
To the lovely Kate Palmer who purchased a print I wrote this;
The "Elephant and the butterfly
left town Friday
total due is $25.95 to this paypal email
and to my dear editor hoping to hear good news about my book title this;
Just a small reminder in your inbox

Technically not perfect haiku but I think we might be onto something here. Maybe you should try it.
Of course a little footnote doesnt go astray when you try something a little crazily different so I made sure I added this little explanation
