The Age of Conversation - Across Disciplines

Last year, I was just beginning to blog when The Age of Conversation was published. I've grown to know several of the contributors -- and this year, I'm excited to be part of the team.

All proceeds of the book go to Variety: The Children's Charity. It is an honor and privilege to be working for such a wonderful cause and to be among such great voices.

Here are a few of the contributing authors already talking about the second edition:
Drew McLellan, Luc Debaiseieux, Ryan Karpeles, Greg Verdino, Lori Magno, Gavin Heaton, Connie Reece, The Kaiser, Katie Chatfield, Tim Jackson, Doug Meacham, C.B. Whittemore, Becky Carroll, Gordon Whitehead, Daniel B. Honigman, Daria Rasmussen, Jay Ehret, Jasmin Tragas, Jamey Shiels, Organic Frog, Bill Gammell, Nathan Snell, Stephen Landau, Stephen Collins, Stephen Smith, Mark Earls, Steven Verbruggen, Neil Perkin, Brett Macfarlane, Dino Demopoulos, Chris Wilson, Asi Sharabi...and I'm sure more will be forthcoming shortly.

[Connie Reece]

Angela, I look forward to getting to know you during this second collaboration. Participating in Age of Conversation last year was one of the best things I did. Welcome to the project.

[Angela Maiers]

C. B. and Connie, I am glad to be aboard the team. I am so looking forward to this opportunity-What an exciting thing to be a part of! Thanks for the welcome!

[Becky Carroll]

Angela, glad you will be joining us this year! The more voices and perspectives, the better. :)

Hi Angela,

Our class is working on text features in a nonfiction book. Will you help me understand the difference between a table and a chart? I can't seem to find the answer for that. Thanks a bunch!!!

[Angela Maiers]

Becky, I am thrilled. Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to working with you and the crew!

[Angela Maiers]

Lori,
That is a great question. I will put up a quick post on this in a few days! Thanks!

[Toby]

Angela - It was such a rewarding experience being part of AoC - part one .. and fun too! Looking forward to reading your chapter :-)

[Gavin Heaton]

Great to have you onboard, Angela! Looking forward to it.

[Angela Maiers]

Gavin and Toby, conversations are as important in the school room as they are in the board room. The lines between business and school need to be blurred and AOC2 helps so that. I am just thrilled for the opportunity to share my voice in the choir!
