Welcome!

My name is Beau. If you're here you've probably clicked through the page and learned a bit about me. This blog section exists, frankly, to get me to write a bit each week outside my usual professional writing. I'd like this to be a place where I can tinker with thoughts publicly. Thoughts related to rhetoric, intercultural encounter, technical communication, public rhetoric, and other things I am interested in professionally. 

Blogs, though, are most fun when people are involved in such a way that they become a community of thinkers, writers, and active members in public life. So feel free to comment, add your thoughts, etc. I will do my best to be interesting if nothing else...
