Thank you for including Karen Russell – she was one of my professors at UGA and she’s always a go-to Twitter reference for me. I would like to add @garyvee, author of Crush It. Just a leading thinker, in my mind. Thanks for this list!
Thanks Lelia! I’ll follow @garyvee today, based on your recommendation.
