Susannah Breslin: Her Forbes Blog Is Gold

This is SB.

Susannah Breslin was a successful journalist with a television background, who got fired, got cancer and started freelancing. She blogs for Forbes now. Subscribing to her blog is not a bad idea.

Here's a taste via two of my faves:

1. "How To Sell Yourself"particularly hit home with me, as in my advertising life I sell other people's products -- with aplomb and gusto, I might add; however, when I am the product, I am hesitant.

2. I particularly like "Here's Why No One Wants To Help You" and it's page 2 follow-up, "How To Get People To Help You," because I have often found myself in convervations with other job-seekers wondering why we know so many people but no one wants to drop everything to help get us work.
