CLiC Project: A&M-Commerce to serve as host institution for the National Conversation on Writing
The National Conversation on Writing is a collection of interviews, video projects, digital ethnographies, and audio essays that attempt to tell the real “Story About Writing” and writers in contemporary contexts.
The National Conversation on Writing answers these question: What's the Story About Writing? •What do people like and not like to write? •Who considers themselves a writer, who not, and why
