(Re)Writing craft
(Re)Writing craft: composition, creative writing, and the future of English studies
Tim Mayers
Publisher: Pittsburgh : University of Pittsburgh Press, c2005.
ISBN: 0822942569   DDC: 808.042071   LCC: PE1404   Edition: (alk. paper)

Summary:

"(Re)Writing Craft explores the past, present, and possible future
relationships between composition studies and creative writing, two
subfields of English studies that have struggled for recognition and
prestige in the shadow of the dominant presence in English
departments: literary studies.

Author Tim Mayers, himself a compositionist and creative writer,
proposes an alliance between composition and creative writing by
which these subfields would stand to gain substantially more than by
simply reconciling themselves individually with literary
studies."--BOOK JACKET.
