I keep in touch with former students... but just the good ones, via LinkedIn. The good ones and their networks might provide candidates for my son’s growing technology business. So I connect selectively.
Most ‘connectees’ are busy, only making contact when they need a reference. I’m OK with that, but...
A message arrived yesterday from Vidushi, a 2008 alumna working in Boston Massachusetts. I immediately remembered she’d once danced for the President of India. All she wanted to say was how much she’d enjoyed my copywriting and PR classes. Wanted to meet up if I was ever over there. Delightful!

I sent her the link to her drabble, and she has just written the most flattering and fulsome complimentary comments in return. Why, I’m almost embarrassed.. well, almost!

...and now she has signed up to Drablr. Let’s hope she starts writing soon. 🙂
