The closing plenary of the conference, hosted by Jim Groom, will bring together voices from our community to help us think about what it means to be writing, blogging and to have a domain of your own on the open web.
“On Writing” is a video podcast hosted by Jim Groom and Team Reclaim. Since we established our Blogging Community of Practice, AKA Bloggers Anonymous, at the start of this year, our community activities have grown as more members join the group, and these conversations about writing and blogging are an important part of stimulating the conversations we are hoping to foster.
Catch up with “On Writing” , featuring interviews with bloggers and writers including Audrey Watters, Kine Lane, Mike Caulfield, Amy Collier, Tom Woodward, Kathleen Fitzpatrick, Adam Croom, Bryan Alexander, Chris Long, Kate Bowles, Lee Skallerup Bessette, Tim Klapdor, Martin Weller and Bonnie Stewart.
