You cannot use a USB mic...You must have agents... You cannot make 6 figures with your accent... SAY IT AIN'T SO!!  Things I was told and things some assume can add up to bogging you down.  Don't believe everything you hear or see and work it out for your self with someone you trust.  All of this is leading up to OVC in August and my session covering accepting yourself as you.  YOU can do most anything!
