2. Book Writing Project: Working on an edited book entitled Global Accents: Languages Other Than English. This will be a compilation of useful chapter-length articles on various languages spoken by millions of people around the globe written by native speaker professionals who have many years of experience studying and teaching these languages to non-native speakers. These language educators will tantalize our readers with linguistic and cultural tidbits about their languages of expertise that will be of tremendous help to those who may have an interest in learning these languages, either for the fun of it or for educational or business reasons. It is hoped that this book will encourage a healthy curiosity toward other languages, cultures and peoples with a view to promoting dialogue, mutual understanding and respect among various peoples with whom we share our ever shrinking and ever changing planet.
