I’m reposting this from Canadian Creative Writers and Writing Programs<\/a>.<\/strong> It seems like a good opportunity for community-building, and I may send them something about my essay workshop this fall. Perhaps you have something to share too:<\/p>\n

After a successful conference in Toronto this past spring, CCWWP (Canadian Creative Writers and Writing Programs) needs your help to continue a national conversation about teaching\u2014and learning about\u2014creative writing in Canada. CCWWP is looking for contributors to a revamped blog covering a wide range of topics relating to creative writing and education. We\u2019ll consider pitches from all fronts: full-time, part-time, casual, former and current creative writing teachers, present or former creative writing students, and writers who simply have an interest in how writing is taught and learned.<\/p>\n

This blog won\u2019t espouse an official organizational view\u2014we are looking for diverse views and experiences that will provoke discussion. Some ideas for topics:<\/p>\n

– interviews with writers about their teaching practice or learning process<\/p>\n

– book reviews (related to teaching in the field)<\/p>\n

– examples of student successes<\/p>\n

– reflections by students on learning process<\/p>\n

– teaching innovations<\/p>\n

– successful lessons or exercises<\/p>\n

– mentorship stories<\/p>\n

– stories of teachable moments<\/p>\n

– relationships between writers and the academy<\/p>\n

– recurring \u201ccolumn\u201d on a specific theme<\/p>\n

Please do NOT propose posts that are largely about promoting your own work.<\/p>\n

Send a brief blog post pitch to blogposts@ccwwp.ca. Make sure to include your bio, a projected completion date, and whether or not the post is time-sensitive. Blog posts come in all shapes and sizes\u2014but start short by thinking in the ballpark of 300 words.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
