Lesley Ann, you recently made a very generous offer to Romance Writers of Australia members.

Have you been shut down for asking a question? Or is it a bad habit of yours? Darcy has a Sassy Snippet for you!
I’ve been working with Sandy, a lovely young woman who is being bullied at work. Now, I’m not talking about appropriate direction or correction. I’m talking things like: Refusing to teach her how to use an invoicing system and making her call the supplier for training so she ‘learns it the right we, because we use shortcuts’.
