Hi Rhee! It's nice to meet you and welcome to the community. Reading is a great way to learn and grow your network in the industry. Your advice is spot on!

Leonardo Ramirez

That's really good advice Rhee Dolly . Glad you're here to share your wisdom.

Maurice Vaughan

Great advice, Rhee Dolly!

"Writing to please other people is madness" That reminds me of a meme where someone cooked a turkey, pizza, cookie, etc. together. Haha If I find it, I'll put it in a comment....
