San Antonio, Texas

We invite papers that are creative nonfiction for the 37th Annual meeting of the CEA. The conference title is "Reading the Regions/Writing the Regions/Teaching the Regions." The idea of a region ought to be as creative as possible, because there are many different kinds of regions. We are looking for both the edgy and the traditional, with writers taking risks in their creative writing.

Upcoming Special Issue of Modern Fiction Studies

Graphic Narratives
Guest Editors: Marianne DeKoven and Hillary L. Chute

Deadline for Submission: 1 March 2006

This special issue seeks essays on book-length works composed in the medium of comics. The emergence of graphic narratives-also called "graphic novels"-combines a sophisticated and experimental awareness of form with a powerful political awareness of comics as a mass medium. The book publication of Art Spiegelman's _Maus: A Survivor's Tale_ brought graphic narratives to the academy; in the two decades since the publication of the first volume of Maus, the field of graphic narratives has expanded significantly.

Rylands Fellow, The University of Manchester, England.
Selected Publications: Literary Theory: An Introduction (1983/1996), The
Gatekeeper: A Memoir (2001), After Theory (2004)

?There can be no reflexive life without theory,? writes Terry Eagleton.
With this in mind, we are seeking papers that use theory to provide new
ideas and insights into human experience.

Peace Review is looking for Book Reviewers for each of its quarterly
issues. Our book reviews are generally short (usually 2000 words),
although we're also interested in book review essays (of two or more
books), which can run 3500 words. The reviews will appear in our
Recommended Book section, and thus we're looking for positive reviews
(although flaws should obviously also be mentioned, if appropriate).

Peace Review is also looking for books to review, in the general
category of peace and justice studies. If you have published a book,
and are looking for a review, then please send (or have your publisher
send) us a copy of the book.

For either of the above, please send to:
