A square photo promoting a "Grammar Girl Conversations" interview featuring Natalie Schilling, a forensic linguist, with a soft, out-of-focus background. Natalie is in the center, smiling warmly with her hair pulled back and wearing a black blazer over a striped top. An orange gradient on the left side of the image adds contrast below white text that reads "GRAMMAR GIRL CONVERSATIONS" at the top and "NATALIE SCHILLING, FORENSIC LINGUIST" at the bottom. A white bubble with the word "INTERVIEW" is above her name, and the "QDT" logo is in the top right corner.
