We are looking for new chapters for our first year composition textbook Digitally Mediated Composing and You: A Beginners Guide to Understanding Rhetoric and Writing in an Interconnected World 

We are looking for writers to contribute four new chapters in Digitally Mediated Composing and You. Because these chapters are filling gaps in an existing text, the topic and direction of each chapter is predetermined, as is the format, but each chapter should be written in the unique voice of the author, and there is a lot of room for experimentation and play within the format! 

We will pay an honorarium of $250 per chapter. Initial drafts are due March 1st, 2024, and final edits April 15th 2024

Email shedg2@uis.edu by November 15th, 2023 if you are interested! 

Four New Chapter Topics: 

  1. Genre

  2. Process

  3. Research Writing 

  4. Entering the Conversation as the Self (working title)

For more details about what we are hoping each chapter might cover, as well as an author guide, please see the extended CFP here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tm7GZSVsvQC9Q7yGnytpjKxGx__GLJjwnTu9...
