Discovering Your Voice Website Under Construction

EMC Publishing’s editorial and design staff is working with authors Tony Romano and Gary Anderson, to create and launch a new website to accompany the new edition of our textbook, Expository Composition: Discovering Your Voice, which is scheduled to roll off the presses in early fall. The new version of the book is even more tech-friendly, including a new chapter “Writing Online,” as well as blog post models from students and experienced bloggers around the country, along with tech-forward tips and approaches infused throughout the book.

The working title of the website is Discovering Your Voice. In his recent blog at http://whatsnotwrong.wordpress.com/2011/06/24/talking-to-myself-about-a-new-website/ coauthor Gary Anderson poses the question, "Before we start building it, what should this site do?"
