The Saturday morning KAXE call-in and music program “Between You and Me” will be exploring winter book recommendations this week. I’ll be joining the conversation with my regular contribution, this week recalling 2009’s top words according to the Global Language Monitor, an annual tradition of mine.

This year’s top word is Twitter and I actually wrote portions of the column on my Twitter feed (@minnesotabrown).

Tune in between 10 a.m. and noon on 91.7 FM in northern Minnesota or streaming live all over the world at www.kaxe.org. The piece will also run as my weekly column in Sunday’s Hibbing Daily Tribune.
