Conflate

To conflate is to blend or fuse together two sets of information – usually texts. When Rosemary J Kind and I worked on our joint book, she conflated her contribution with mine. The resulting conflation is From Story Idea to Reader.

    1. A conflake is a sort of conflation, Maggie - of corn, sugar and other stuff.

  4. As opposed to 'inflate' - hope the book continues to sell well.

    1. The audio version is doing well, Susan. We've got some good reviews there too.
