The In Conversation section of Tint Journal is a place where discussions about writing in English as a second language, and about ESL books and their authors take place. Here, writers, readers, and book lovers come together to share ideas, discover new favorite books, and read up on up-and-coming authors.
The section is divided into reviews, where our contributing writers introduce new ESL books and old classics of this category; interviews, where ESL authors share their insights into craft, their love for language, and their future projects; and profiles, where we invite you to discover valuable individuals in the world of ESL writing.
If you would like to contribute your own article to In Conversation, please review our submission guidelines and contact our section editors.
But first: Grab a cup of tea and get ready to discover your next favorite ESL book!
