Patricia Martin was one of my personal favorites this year in my guest line up. I really enjoyed RenGen and all she brought to the concept. Next week I interview Joe Pine, the author of three books that are leading concepts in marketing: Mass Customization, The Experience Economy and Authenticity, his latest, which dovetails beautifully into Patricia Martin's estimation of the market opportunity in our culture today. I've also read Timothy Ferris' book and seen him speak at SXSW. I guess I'll have to ask him on the show next! All the best, Susan Bratton Host, DishyMix CEO, Personal Life Media Gaurav,

Listen, you are walking proof of the RenGen phenomenon. A self-described "marketer and poet" you live a fused identity. Your values are right in line with the spirit of the RenGen, and I look forward to reading your book when it comes out. Best, Patricia Gaurav-
