We broke out into teams that were in the same growth mode, and shared personal stories on how we each got there. My favorite part of this SBA e200 group so far is hearing the personal stories of each CEO – how they got started, what factors motivated them, and what risks they took to get here. Each CEO has their own story of courage, recognized opportunity and personal growth. I bet this group would make a great twitter novel… (hmm, note to self). But I wonder how much time that novel would take away from me working on building our web design company.

A novel idea or a novelty? http://www.sandstormdesign.com/blog/twitter-novels-a-novel-idea-or-a-novelty/ http://www.sandstormdesign.com/blog/twitter-novels-a-novel-idea-or-a-novelty/#comments Mon, 27 Apr 2009 02:46:45 +0000 Sandy http://www.sandstormdesign.com/blog/?p=209 So I just read a snippet from the middle of a twitter novel, and I am still getting my head wrapped around the concept. I read about 50 posts, and I feel like I jumped into a movie part way through. All weekend this twitter novel storyline has been popping up in my mind, but I can’t decide if it’s the storyline that is strong or is it my intrigue and curiosity on the medium selected? Could a twitter novelist make it on Oprah? Or could our web design firm build a novel about our company?
