Writing With Purpose: Navigating Writing Spaces From Unconventional Platforms to Traditional Venues

Session Type: Invited Speaker Session

Abstract

In this interactive working session, beginning to advanced graduate students will learn about writing for a range of purposes from emerging scholars at different stages of the tenure process. The presenters will share strategies for navigating the process of disseminating work and ideas from identifying a publication location to crafting pieces with publication in mind to celebrating a finished, published product. As part of this session, participants will have the opportunity to break up into small groups based on areas of interest that emerge during the discussion, to engage with their peers and to consult with the presenters to have some specific questions answered.
