In the Beginning . . .

. . .was the CSU Writing Project. The 2005 CSUWP Summer Institute kicks off tomorrow, June 13th, 2005. As it begins, so, too, does this blog. This is an experimental space to see if there is both time for and interest in publishing via this format. (If you want to know more about blogs, perhaps you should click here.)
During the Institute, we'll discover writing prompts, have big ideas, and do some pretty powerful writing. Some of that work will be highly personal, and shouldn't be out in public. But much of our work should be.
The good stuff will require attention. Perhaps this blog could be a place to publish it. Perhaps, too, this could be a place to share ideas about how to teach writing. We'll see, I guess.
If you want to write for this blog and you are affiliated with the CSUWP, send me an e-mail and I'll add you to the author's list. This is a team sport, if you want it to be.
Looking forward to sharing with you.
