I’m a Conversation Artiste in this Digital Age.

Update here.

The announcements are continuing… this one is really an introduction to a post series I’ll be having. But first things first.

First, I have to express to you how my own deep seated jealousy led to the opportunity of a lifetime. Don’t try this at home kids, jealousy usually is a huge waste of time.

Last year, around this same time, I started to see a great deal of my respected peers talking about this book. This wonderful, amazing book that all these fantastic people had contributed nuggets of knowledge to, all about the Age of Conversation.

The more I found out about this book, the more I turned absolutely green with uncontrollable envy. Why wasn’t I in this blockbuster? Was I really that much out of the loop? Who was behind this unbearable injustice?

Turns out, me. If I’d been paying attention, I could have asked to contribute to the first book. It’s quite likely I would have been accepted. Duh.

So, I chalked one additional line on the scoreboard to my nemeeis, Missed Opportunities, and became obsessed with following mentions of the book online – and getting my own copy because proceeds go to charity. And it is this obsession, driven by my own battle with the Green Monster, that led me to the discovery that Drew McLellan and the gang were doing it again!

Once I was done break dancing, (Just the pop and lock, Dr. Mani. I’m minding my back.) I applied and was accepted. I sent in my legal agreement, and now I’m doing my article. I’ll tell you what it’s on when I’m done (although we got our assignments a while back, I like keeping you in suspense.)

In the meantime, I’d like you to meet all the authors. What most people are doing is making a blog post with all the author names, linked to their sites. I have decided to go a step further and to aslo take a handful of these fine folks at a time, and write about their blogs, or if they don’t have blogs, interesting comments at their sites.

But you can start with the list below. Go pick someone at random and read their blog.

No you will Not do it later. You’ll pick one now, and you’ll LIKE it.

Jeremy Middleton,

Sure is a lot of authors, no wonder the green eyed monster ate you up inside! This could well be naive of me, but, er, wouldn't it just be simpler to publish a darn good book under just the one author, ie you? If you don't fancy the time and expense of self publishing, just create it as a pdf file and upload it here (preferably as a free download) as your very own ebook. Because all us onliners will be charmed and read your work avidly.

You could simply put together a whole string of posts or articles you have written in the past. Or write it on "How To Create Your Own Ebook" or anything like that. Or something different!
