Sandy Dempsey featured me in the &#8220;reader profile&#8221; in the latest issue of her email newsletter, The Dreaming Cafe. In the profile, I got the opportunity to tell you a little bit about how I&#8217;m living one of my dreams&#8230; (Thank you for the opportunity, Sandy!)

The fall semester at Rider University starts in just a few weeks. In preparing to teach my students about writing for social media, I came across an interesting tool:  Twitter Grader from HubSpot. The tool is designed to help us measure our influence on Twitter. The Twitter Grader site says, &#8220;Twitter Grader is a [...]]]></description>

Since then, Alex and I have been collaborating on a new business adventure that we&#8217;re launching soon. (I&#8217;ll keep you posted here as things happen, so stay tuned!&#8230;)

To write a good presentation or speech, ALWAYS focus on your audience. (Actually, it&#8217;s a good idea to focus on your audience or readers for all your writing efforts!) I shared these tips with my students at [...]]]></description>

This is a repeat of a popular blog post I wrote late last year &#8212; and it&#8217;s worth repeating now because I&#8217;ve recently rediscovered the value of brainstorming for creative solutions and ideas in my own life and business. I hope you can discover the value of brainstorming, too!

We need to be good at doing BOTH: working alone and working in teams. Successful teamwork is based on good communication skills &#8212; the ability to effectively express our thoughts, and the ability to interact with others.
