Deadlines for proposals for the first annual conference of the
Canadian Association for the Study of Discourse and Writing are
approaching fast. The theme of the conference is "The Territoire/
Places of Writing Studies in Higher Education: Canadian and
International Perspectives." Of course, we will also include papers on
all other aspects of discourse and writing studies. There has been
some talk of holding the Inkshed conference on the days prior to the
CASDW conference, so if you are planning to attend one or the other
perhaps you'll be able to attend both. In addition, we hope to attract
presentations, roundtables, workshops, and papers on writing centres.
As an acting director of a writing centre (Roger), I can assure you
that the program committee has a strong interest in this theme!
To review the call for papers, follow this link:

September 20 (for possible SSHRC travel funding) is the deadline for
proposals; September 30 is the deadline if you do not want to be
considered for travel support.
We look forward to receiving your proposals and to two wonderful
conferences.
