Full Description
Seeking Our Places: Innovations in Creative Writing Studies Research, Methodologies, and Practices contends that as the field of Creative Writing Studies continues to shape its disciplinary identity within the larger discipline of Writing Studies, so too must we continue to theorize new methods and methodologies for examining creative writing as action, artifact, and socio-material phenomenon. In moving toward more Writing Studies based methodologies, Seeking Our Places argues that it is in theorizing, practicing, and reflecting on these methodologies inflected through the act of creative writing that we may discover new ways of regarding creative writing and producing new insights into the field of Creative Writing Studies.
