Prospective Forum: RCWS Creative Writing on MLA Commons 11 years, 8 months agoI believe this group will help scholars in both rhetoric and composition and creative writing have the visibility they deserve in the MLA, especially since both groups are informing some of the most exciting scholarship being produced today.
