DARESAY -- Call for Collaboration
THE PROPOSITION
Imagine the genre of academic prose had yet to be invented.
Imagine the voice of "the Ph.D. student" had yet to be heard.
Imagine nothing was written in stone.
If you accept the dare, in what form or manner will you write? How will you fashion your voice? Where will you draw the boundaries?
Form, length, content, and style? All up to you.
THE INVITATION
You're invited to collaborate on this self-reflective & self-reflexive project. We're aiming at putting together an innovative & creative on-line collection of essays: courageous, bold, risky.
Curious? Interested? Drop us a line at cecste@hotmail.com or bem12@psu.edu and tell us about your ideas for a contribution and how you imagine collaborating. by No deadline.
