Hello everyone,
We are writing to you to share a call for submissions for pitches and full blog posts (approx. 1,000-2,000 words) at FEN Blog, hosted by Composition Studies.
We at FEN Blog welcome submissions from anyone with a stake in writing education and the scholarship of writing education –– students, contingent or tenure track faculty, high school educators, and administrators. We hope to hear from all kinds of voices and are happy to talk through any ideas you might have to get some of your work out for the world to see.
We hope that this blog will act as a platform where we can swap ideas about how to write and teach about writing in compassionate, equitable, and effective ways. As a blog, FEN Blog affords writers and readers the chance to address these subjects in timely, shortform pieces that speak to the ongoing opportunities we face every day in our classrooms.
While we are interested in ANYTHING that you are passionate about as it relates to the teaching of writing, we are especially interested in:
- Experiments with alternative grading and assessment
- Labor in higher education
- Connections between creative writing and composition pedagogy
- Digital rhetoric and multimodal composition
- Public rhetoric, activism, and advocacy
- Collaborative writing pedagogy
- Composition history
More information on submission guidelines are found here.

Hope to read your work soon,
Emily Brier and Daniel Libertz, co-editors
