  Teaching writing is not for the faint of heart, but it can be a tremendous gift to teachers and students.  Students often approach writing courses with trepidation because they think of writing as a mystical and opaque process. Teachers often approach these same courses with dread because of the enormous workload and the often-unpolished skills of new writers. This approachable composition textbook for beginning writers contends that writing can be a better experience for everyone when taught as an empathetic and respectful conversation. In a time in which discourse is not always civil and language is not always tended carefully, a conversation-based writing approach emphasizes intention and care. 
   
  Written by a teacher with more than fifteen years of experience in the college writing classroom, Composition as Conversation explores what happens when the art of conversation meets the art of writing. Heather Hoover shows how seven virtues--including curiosity, attentiveness, relatability, open-mindedness, and generosity--inform the writing process and can help students become more effective writers. She invites writers of all skill levels to make meaningful contributions with their writing. 
   
  This short, accessible, and instructive book offers a reflective method for college-level writing and will also work well in classical school, high school, and homeschool contexts. It demystifies the writing process and helps students understand why their writing matters. It will energize teachers of writing as they encourage their students to become careful readers and observers, intentional listeners, and empathetic arguers. The book also provides helpful sample assignments.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Workplace harassment is an issue that extends far beyond isolated incidents—it is a systemic problem that affects employees across industries and at all levels of employment. From overt discrimination and verbal abuse to more insidious forms of intimidation and exclusion, workplace harassment can take many shapes. Yet, despite growing awareness, countless cases go unreported, leaving victims to suffer in silence while companies turn a blind eye. The consequences of this widespread problem are severe, impacting not only individuals but entire organizations.  
    
  At its core, workplace harassment is about power and control. It is often perpetuated by those in positions of authority or influence, creating a culture where victims fear retaliation if they speak up. In some cases, even when complaints are filed, they are dismissed or mishandled by employers who prioritize their company’s reputation over the well-being of their employees. This failure to address harassment fosters a toxic work environment, leading to decreased productivity, high turnover rates, and lasting emotional damage for those affected.  
    
  While laws and regulations exist to protect workers from harassment, enforcement remains inconsistent. Many employees are unaware of their rights, and even those who do understand them may hesitate to take legal action due to the stigma attached to being labeled a troublemaker. Human resources departments, which are meant to serve as a safeguard against workplace misconduct, often struggle to balance their duty to employees with their loyalty to the company. As a result, the burden of addressing workplace harassment frequently falls on the victims themselves, leaving them with difficult choices that can impact their careers and mental health.
