Do any of you Inkshedders know of existing forums/conference
opportunities for directors and tutors of writing centres at Canadian
universities?  I coordinate the writing centre at Memorial University of
Newfoundland. I read all CASLL entries avidly and am finding them highly
educational (I've only held this position for 1 1/2 years); I've also
seriously considered attending the Inkshed conference. But what I most
urgently need right now is dialogue with other writing centre
professionals. And while writing center conferences in the U.S. abound,
I don't recall ever seeing a Canadian one advertised. Is there such a
thing? And if there isn't, can anyone recommend a U.S. conference that
would be particularly relevant to someone working at a Canadian writing
centre? (Whew! I've done it. It's taken me 1 1/2 years to summon the
nerve to contribute something to this listserv!)  Hoping for some
response  -  Ginny Ryan, Memorial University Writing Centre
