My friend and colleague, Joe Kimble, would never toot his own horn, but I wanted to share his good news with this community. Carolina Academic Press has published Joe's book, Lifting the Fog of Legalese: Essays on Plain Language. It was released in December, and he's already had two local book signings, one at a local branch of Barnes & Noble.

We're extremely fortunate to have him as Chair of our department, and I know many of you know Joe's tireless work to promote plain language through Scribes and Clarity, and to promote the status of teachers of legal writing. So if you want to find out more about the book, check out Carolina's web site:
