Dear colleagues, I hope you all had a good reading week or other winter break. If you did some writing (or even thought about it), please consider sharing your ideas through the new Inkshed Newsletter at http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/. We would be interested to know what you read, what you thought, what you drafted, what you intend to write sometime, what you're wondering about, where you're coming from.... Inkshed is typically lively, provocative, and informal, with a specialty of connecting teaching and theory. Short pieces are especially welcome, including poetry and short stories. If you have a piece ready, or taking shape, please send it to me soon for the next Newsletter issue. I'm at [log in to unmask] To announce something or post a timely piece of information, just go to the bottom of the home page at http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/ and click on Register. You will then see a box where you can write (or paste in) your note. It will appear headlined in the right-hand column, and will be tagged and indexed according to the category you give it. (A current example is Brock MacDonald's update on plans for the Inkshed 2012 conference.) Readers are also wanted! You can comment on anything you read on the site by using a Reply box. That's typical Inkshed behaviour too. Best, Margaret. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- To leave the list, send a SIGNOFF CASLL-L command to [log in to unmask] or, if you experience difficulties, write to Russ Hunt at [log in to unmask] To view or search the list archives, go to https://listserv.utoronto.ca/cgi-bin/wa?A0=CASLL-L -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
