I will provide text for this and adjacent topics after I finish incorporating all 200 selections of student writing anthologized in The Rhetoric of Inner Space. To check on my progress, please start with the first selection of any of the following:
I originated this "Dream Course in Writing" at Florida Southern College in 1968 and the University of Florida in 1973 and used it for three years at Georgia Tech. In its prototype form, the text for The Rhetoric of Inner Space was eventually over 400 pages and was printed in the 1970s at a cost of $5 per student. I used it experimentally in selected composition classes at Georgia Tech from 1975 through 1978.
After I left Georgia Tech at the end of 1978 to become a full-time industrial technical communicator, The Rhetoric of Inner Space, both the text and the associated method for teaching composition, lay dormant in my filing cabinet.
Target completion date for publishing The Rhetoric of Inner Space on this website is December 2002.
