Jazzed to Start This Effort

I am starting a blog about 4Context and opinion writing. I figured it's best to start here:

I gave an abbreviated opinion-writing workshop at Columbia University's graduate School of International and Public Affairs. It was held on a Friday, on a day of a driving bitter rain storm. But writers still turned out. Here is what one student wrote:

Allison's op-ed workshop is truly remarkable. Combining her charisma with her engaging and effective style, Allison teaches more in three hours than one can expect in a semester-long course. All professionals interested in having their op-eds published should enroll in her course.

I was so jazzed to be part of this! And it looks — and sounds — like they were too! So thanks, folks, for turning out!
