Please apologize for cross-postings _____________________________ Dear Colleagues, A number of potential contributors for the 1st issue of *connexions* on “*International Professional Communication: yesterday < today > tomorrow*” have asked for a few more days to send in their manuscripts, so I am extending the deadline another week. If you have already started, but have not yet finished your position paper or literature review, or if you have a great idea, but have not yet got round to writing it down, you can still send in your complete 400-500 word Position Paper, or Literature Review for this issue (please note that the list of references is not part of the word count). The new deadline is *Tuesday, February 7, 2012*. A very warm *thank you* to all the colleagues who sent in their manuscripts. They are highly appreciated, and forecast a very exciting issue. Please continue forwarding this *CFP<http://connexionsjournal.org/call-for-papers/> * to people who might be interested. I will be glad to answer your questions. Thank you.
