My friend Brian, also a writer, texted me late last night, apropos of nothing:
The most important part is that you must believe that someone out there needs to hear something you have to say. Then, you write.
His comment captures, I think, what Sherry and I hope this blog will be about and why we started it in the first place: as a means to create a space for honest and dynamic discourse about building careers in the increasingly vital fields of international education, exchange, and development, done in the belief that there are many people out there that need to hear something that we have to say—and have much to say in return.
