When I lived in Illinois, years ago, I played Liesl in a production of the Sound of Music. I remember the director, a real life nun, yelling at me, “Tsufit, you look like a piece of limp spaghetti up there!”. That was the very first (and last) time I’ve been compared to pasta. On the [...]

I inhale books. I buy them, pile them up and read them 8-10 at a time. I have more books than the average metropolitan library. Especially business books. And now, I’m being sent even more books for review on this blog. And I read every single one…OK, almost… The sad truth is that some of [...]

Would you go on Reality TV?

On page 83 of Step Into The Spotlight!, I admitted that I have 503 domain names. My friends were ready to send me to “Domain Names Anonymous”, but I stand my ground. They’re not making any more lakefront and they’re not making any more .coms. But in the past few months, I let a couple [...]

Anyone who’s heard me speak or read Step Into The Spotlight! knows that I love to tease corporate types. About their corporate gobbletygook. About how their words obscure meaning. About how they seem to specialize in taking something simple and making it– well, check this out… (Thanks to Ad Age for the heads up.) Share [...]

Just got back from Dallas. Did a booksigning in the Dallas Airport, all very exciting. Met a real estate agent at a conference who made Audrey Hepburn look like a shlump. I’m talking fresh as a daisy at all hours of the day or night. When I asked her secret, she whispered “Ann Taylor”. Now, [...]
