Dear colleagues,

This message is a friendly reminder: Proposals for flashtalks, workshops, posters, and displays at the 2024 Writing Innovation Symposium, Writing Human/s, are due 10/27. The symposium itself takes place online and onsite at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, 2/1 and 2/2. Read the complete CFP here: https://bit.ly/WIS24CFP. Learn more about the WIS via Macmillan’s Bits blog and Community Literacy Journal.

Additional details: Co-sponsored by Marquette University and Bedford/St. Martin’s, Writing Human/s will be a chance to gather onsite and online to collaboratively consider the connections and disconnects between writing and (being) human/s. To contribute, consider proposing:

• 75-minute workshops.

• 5-minute flashtalks

• 3-minute flares, a category open exclusively to undergraduate writers.

• Posters, displays, and creative works

• Or apply to be a 2024 Bedford/St. Martin’s WIS Fellow
