Day 3 with city staff and the Bloomberg team, working on an action plan to make downtown clean, green, safe and fun. Working with visionary city-builders is an absolute dream. Change is coming to Centretown, and I can’t wait.

This advice goes well beyond writing - it's life advice! 💪
If I had to recommend 3 things to writers (at all levels), I would start with these 3 (with options for adding more):
1. Be persistent.

3. Never stop learning.
