Lore: An E-journal for Teachers of Writing seeks submissions for the Job
Strategies section of the Fall 2004 issue. Almost everyone who chooses to
teach composition does so because of a drive to teach, whether that drive
comes from enjoyment, a sense of purpose, or something else. Even when we
love teaching, however, we often face a challenge when we try to describe
what forms the foundation not only of why we teach but also how we
teach. For many job applicants, one of the most stressful documents to
create is the teaching philosophy. How do we articulate principles that
have often remained unspoken, ideas that also represent core beliefs that
shape one of our primary identities: composition instructor?

Big Tex[t], a new biannual on-line journal, is seeking submissions of
* Literary Criticism
* Poetry
* Fiction
* Creative Nonfiction
* Visual Art
* Audio/Spoken Word
While Big Tex[t] is not a regional publication, our editorial stance is
derived from our connection to the cultural and geographic shatterbelt
of Texas- the complex mingling of ethnicities, cultures, and
environments that we observe each day. Sixty-some years ago, folklorist
J. Frank Dobie looked forward to a day when the mesquite tree had as
much poetic resonance as the English yew. At Big Tex[t] we celebrate not
just the humble Texas mesquite, but all landscapes, all poetics. We
