    The profile you wrote for Jill is very similar and possibly a replica of her profile on Mylifetime.com. While is is a very well-written profile and does a great job of describing Jill, I would love to see what you think of Jill with you writing your on description for her. You are a great writer and I hope I didn’t offend you.
