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.

Heather Graves and Roger Graves, Co-Vice-Presidents and Program  
Chairs, CASDW 2008-9
