My earliest research examined scholarly writing and publication and resulted in two coedited collections: Writing and Publishing for Academic Authors (Rowman & Littlefield) and Publishing in Rhetoric and Composition (SUNY Press). My more recent work investigates how concepts of literacy are changing in response to advanced communication technologies. In 1998, I coedited Literacy Theory after the Internet (Columbia University Press) with Irene Ward. I am currently working with my coauthor, Janice Walker, on a second edition of The Columbia Guide to Online Style. I have been the editor of CCC Online since its launch in 1998. I also edit the The CCCC Bibliography of Composition and Rhetoric: 1984 to 1999, which is now available as an online, searchable database. Click here for more details about my work.
