Hello, and welcome to AVC’s blog! There are hundreds—er, probably thousands—of communications and marketing blogs out there, so I appreciate you taking the time to read this one.

In the weeks and months ahead, this blog will be devoted to commenting on marketing and PR trends (yes, there will probably be something on Twitter soon) as well as notes on media and the way we use our words.

See something that interests you and want to chat more about it? E-mail me. Call me. Have a different point of view? Yes, still go ahead and e-mail me. The best part of working in communications is … communicating. And we don’t do it enough. I know it’s a two-way street and hope to see this blog evolve beyond a page on a Web site to a genuine conversation starter. And I hope you’ll join the conversation.

Again, thanks for reading!
Stephanie Conner
