Dear Sean:

I would like to thank-you for your enthusiastic support of my writing endeavor. I have wanted for some time to write a children’s book and you have given me that extra ‘push’ I needed to get started. After sitting with you for just fifteen minutes I have brainstormed and put to paper a list of characters and their roles within the story. You were great at helping me to break down the writing process into manageable chunks, which is so important when you are a person with very little free time. You really encouraged me and after meeting with you, I am well on my way to having the outline to my story completed. I also have found and illustrator and I feel confident now that I can do this, one step at a time.

In the 6 years that I worked with you at SBC, you were always extremely positive, enthusiastic, and helpful and I have found that in your new career, you have risen bar! Thanks so much for your guidance, motivation, and continued support with my writing endeavor.

Sincerely,
Nathalie Kethe

Having writer’s block is normal and can occur in many different fashions.........

Interviewed by: Smart Money Magazine

 Desperate Measures By Anne Kadet

 November, 2002

“The deep freeze may also indicate that the interviewer has concerns about your qualifications. Sean North encountered this when he was up for a tech support job at telecom SBC in Troy, Mich. The interviewer asked about one mainframe application after another, and North was clueless. "The interviewer was probably thinking, 'What does this guy know?'" North recalls. "He became indifferent, like he was just going through the motions." Figuring he had nothing to lose, North broke in and asked whether the job involved PC software, his strong point. When the interviewer brightened up, North described all the applications he'd dealt with. "We can teach you the mainframe applications," the interviewer concluded. “

Third-party testimonials promote your strengths

 Sean North, a communications specialist for SBC Yellow Pages in Troy, Mich., said he used quotes on his resume, and many potential employers told him that they liked the testimonials. "Quotes and testimonials stand out among other resumes," he said. "[They're] unconventional and lots of companies like creativity."’
