In an era of blurred generic boundaries, multimedia storytelling, and open-source culture, creative writing scholars stand poised to consider the role that technology—and the creative writer's playful engagement with technology—has occupied in the evolution of its theory and practice.

Composition, Creative Writing Studies and the Digital Humanities is the first book to bring these three fields together to open up new opportunities and directions for creative writing studies. Placing the rise of Creative Writing Studies alongside the rise of the digital humanities in Composition/Rhetoric, Adam Koehler shows that the use of new media and its attendant re-evaluation of fundamental assumptions in the field stands to guide Creative Writing Studies into a new era. Covering current developments in composition and the digital humanities, this book re-examines established assumptions about process, genre, authority/authorship and pedagogical practice in the creative writing classroom.

Industry Reviews

Essential reading for undergraduate and graduate-level creative writers who teach, particularly those who question the traditional workshop emphasis on publication and who are open to fecund combinations of rule-breaking, literary conventions, and new media ... Composition, Creative Writing Studies, and the Digital Humanities unpacks more than three decades of scholarship to establish another nascent field, digital creative writing studies ... [It] advance[s] the rigor of creative writing as an academic discipline with deep ties to the sister world of composition and rhetoric while nudging teacher-writers toward innovative, process-oriented pedagogies and heuristics.
