It goes outside my comfort zone to self-tootle, so a little encouragement goes a long way :-)

Sara, thank you also for your congrats, and right back at you! I’m going to be doing a post on Toastmasters (At toast post?) to talk about how we’ve set up a “corporate” chapter for S. Jersey librarians. I am going to continue on with Toastmasters, not with any goals (i.e. DTM) other than to continue to improve as a public speaker.

Are you going beyond the CC award? Are you going to try for the DTM? I wish more librarians were Toastmasters.

Amy, I concur. We all need to feel more comfortable with horn-tooting.

And I think it is always important to “toot” one’s own horn – we actually as a whole don’t do it enough and everyone who knows you knows you are a humble enough person that when you do it you really just want to share your good news and celebrate with all! And are not doing it for any “negative” purposes/reasons… I think we should take the opportunity, especially here as a group on LG, to do that.
:-) Congrats!!! Amy
