I would like to welcome you to the Speaking of That blog.
Blogging is new to a lot of us and I am learning that administering and editing a blog is no small matter – not only in designing one that is pleasant to look at and read, but also in finding ways to encourage people to read it! I am just testing WordPress, so the URL name may not remain the same, but I will give you plenty of warning if it is changed. I’ll be adding some sidebars, and useful links to helpful resources as time goes by. So, I hope you will see this as a work in progress.
I am excited about this new kick-off opportunity to talk to you about the great issues, people, places, and things in the world, and I trust that the blog will hit on some ideas and comments that grab you. It will always be open to topical suggestions – so your recommendation is invited.
I am not sure right now how often you will find new posts from me here, but to begin with it will be at least once a week. I will try to limit each post to 750 words or less – hopefully short and pithy. If you have a comment, a question, a clarification, or just want to agree or disagree, I hope you will post a comment.
Check out the About tab for more info on the purpose of the blog, and the Editor Bio tab for info about me.
