Theorizing Fan Fiction and Fan Communities (edited volume; completed papers
due 4/1/05)

Overview

Lore: An E-journal for Teachers of Writing seeks submissions for the
Digressions section of the Fall 2004 issue. In the past year or so,
blogging has become something of a national pastime with academics becoming
a core group using blogs for personal and professional reasons. Yet even
though many people embrace blogging, many others have no idea what it is or
why anyone would do it. In this issue of Lore, we want to explore the roll
that blogging plays for compositionists and the composition classroom.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

Transformations explores and promotes inclusive pedagogy and curriculum
transformation. Representing a variety of cross-disciplinary interests,
both theoretical and practical, the journal is designed to create a dynamic
exchange among diverse scholars. A variety of approaches, from theoretical
essays to short descriptions of pedagogical innovations, will assist
teachers and scholars at all levels who are committed to integrating recent
scholarship on gender, race/ ethnicity, class, sexuality, and other identity
positions. Original submissions are sought as follows:

Writing Macao:
creative text and teaching

New Deadline for Second Number:
Submissions are now sought for the second number of Writing Macao:creative
text and teaching, to appear in November of 2004. Contributions are
particularly sought in the area of theory and practice relating to the
teaching of creative writing in English in non-native contexts. The
deadline for papers is extended to the end of October, 2004. Submissions of
creative work will also now be accepted.

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?
