    Dear Fellow Communicators,

    Congratulations to all of you in the new PRSP Board!

    I am taking this opportunity to be the first follower of this PRSP blog simply to let you know that that I have just soft-launched Jose Carillo’s English Forum at www.josecarilloforum.com. It’s now on its fourth week and the discussions there about English and communication are getting livelier and more provocative each day, so I am delighted to invite you to drop by at the Forum sometime soon.

    And I’d like to assure you that a visit to the Forum won’t just be all English shoptalk. It offers a new package of features every week to make your visit even more productive and more enjoyable. Take a look at the latest lineup:

    THIS WEEK IN THE FORUM (May 23-29, 2009):
    •Advice and Dissent: Things You Might Do If You’ve Already Mastered Your English (Skewer its established rules to the point of no return?)
    •Essays by Jose Carillo: The State of Our English (How we might backslide to the level of our English-challenged Asian neighbors)
    •Notable Works by Our Very Own: N. V. M. Gonzalez Has Created “A New Clearing Within the English Idiom” (That’s truly a feat of literary genius!)
    •Going Deeper into English: Some Useful Resources for Student Writers (They should come in handy to students and teachers alike this coming schoolyear)
    •Plugging the Gaps in Our English: Lesson # 4 – Developing the Sentence (This just might cure most people’s temporary English-grammar amnesia)
    •Pour Out Your Mind in English: “Everyone Should Learn to Write Well” by Arvin Ortiz (Like Arvin, we bet you wish you could!)

    So drop by at Jose Carillo’s English Forum now and better still, register as a member so you can participate actively in its efforts to promote good English and excellent communication.

    See you at the Forum!

    With my best wishes,
    Joe Carillo
