“Dear Erik,
I like this new format (“Ad Lib”). It is much less formal, and feels like you are talking to me directly. It is spontaneous, conversational, and engaging. And great choice of cues.
I suggest this title: “Off the Cue” (like “Off the Cuff” which means without preparation)
Good job....”Read full review »
