“Hey Robert,
Sounds like you have learned quite a bit and are on your way.
Let me know how things are going for you.”
Take Care.

It looks like you are heading in the right direction!”

Thanks,

Dear Robert J. Williams,

“Keep working, screening great films, and reading; and don't let yourself become either discouraged or easily satisfied in your career, or your editing work, without putting up a good fight!”
