Conversation 79 (Listen and Read)

I was able to get a hold of Billy North yesterday.

The plan was to have him as our opening speaker for the December networking event,

but he told us he was not able to attend.

Are you kidding me?

That's terrible news.

The agenda for the event goes out at the end of the week,

so we need to find another speaker as soon as possible.

Do you have any ideas of who can replace him?

Hmm.. Actually someone does come to mind.

Vanessa Twill is an engaging public speaker,

and she has a huge fan base.

Let me call her now and I will let you know if she is available.
