Dear Inkshedders, I am very pleased to announce that Miriam Horne successfully (and eloquently) defended her dissertation on Friday, October 26. Her research, as many of you will know, was a study of inkshedding and Inkshed, and it's a must-read for anyone who has attended the conference, participated in inkshedding, used it in their teaching, or thought about the relationship between writing practices and community membership. It's a thoughtful and courageous piece of work. Let's hope Miriam finds a publisher. Congratulations, Miriam!
