Southern Discourse
Dear SWCA Members and Friends,
Southern Discourse: Publication of the Southeastern Writing Center Association is changing to a new format. We will publish two issues yearly—Fall and Spring—instead of three, but we will also add eight pages to each of the two issues, so we are not losing any room for your articles.
I decided to make the change because the third issue (Summer), which usually goes out in May, is difficult to produce at the end of the semester when my student editors are busy with finals, summer plans, and often commencement. The Summer issue also tends to get lost in the months when many centers close down or go to minimal schedules.
We are excited about the change because it will allow us to publish some longer articles (up to 3000 words) and should save us all a bit of money, since we will have two mailings instead of three.
The new deadlines for submission will be September 10 and January 10. I urge you to consider submitting your work to Southern Discourse by emailing me the manuscript. I am happy to work with you on ideas or proposals for articles.
We are also looking for material to publish; we love working with student writers and with writers new to publication. We also need “Back to the Center” profiles of writing centers in the region for each issue. Remember to send high resolution photos (JPEGs) with your submissions: we are still the only writing center publication to publish photos.
Thanks everyone!
