@JakeSkeets Love this. Reminds me of another project to make friends with the dead which may fit your epistolary explorations. Christian Hawkey’s Ventrakl is an experiment in mistranslation that includes letters to Trakl too.

@JakeSkeets @VChangPoet I love “envelopes of air” which Ada Limon and Natalie Diaz wrote: https://t.co/ycKiI5Nda0

@Write_not_Wrong @_Pedagogue_ Yes, this! How can we help get more journals on board? Would love to record my recent article in @PedagogyJournal

@_JoyCastro @JasonBMcCormick Thank you! We're going to miss this community so much but will carry the relationships with us 💜

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

Excited to share that I’ve accepted a TT position at the University of Southern Mississippi as an Assistant Professor of English, and their Director of Composition! It’s bittersweet to leave Lincoln, but @jasonbmccormick and I are looking forward to exploring Hattiesburg!

Today's issue 6.1 highlight is "Mass Thermal Anomalies"

This incredible poem by @ErikaLuckert contemplates the effects of climate change on Earth. Rife with themes of renewal, loss, grief, and evolution, it asks the question of what it means to be a steward of our home.

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@katiemarya13 @unlenglish @_JoyCastro @CharlotteKupsh Hmmmm... Maybe Anzaldua's How to tame a wild tongue? Or Adrienne Rich When We Dead Awaken: Writing as Revision

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@CharlotteKupsh Came here to see if anyone had offered suggestions yet and was impressed to see the lack of unsolicited advice

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

Had a great time talking about possibilities at the intersection of creative writing and writing centers with @_ecp_ and @jessicapoli_

[Creative Writing Studies Organization @cwstudies]

How are writing center and traditional creative writing workshop practices the same? What can they learn from one another? #CWSC22

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@cecaroliena Wait how do you do this?! I only know how in Gmail

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@CharlotteKupsh @JasonBMcCormick Yes absolutely! I'm a big fan of having the writing prompt etc written down. One of the things I use ppt for at the beginning of every semester now is for a mini lecture titled "what I learned from your pre course surveys" where all the content comes from students!

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@CharlotteKupsh @JasonBMcCormick that the point/ answer and trajectory of the class is already determined / won't be as influenced by student contributions? there are ways around this! But I think the tool does tempt us to be less collaborative with our students as cocreators of knowledge, if that makes sense?

[Erika Luckert @ErikaLuckert]

@CharlotteKupsh @jasonbmccormick and I have been having convos about this. I think the latter is certainly true. But I think another thing that is tricky about ppt even without the text heavy problem is it often signifies...

@pseudosimone This is entirely believable. Love them.

@pseudosimone 21st century reincarnation!

@indigojackal ABSOLUTELY
