Download or read book Composition in the Age of Austerity written by Nancy Welch and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of the gradual saturation of US public education by the logics of neoliberalism, educators often find themselves at a loss to respond, let alone resist. Through state defunding and many other “reforms” fueled by austerity politics, a majority of educators are becoming casual labor in US universities while those who hang onto secure employment are pressed to act as self-supporting entrepreneurs or do more with less. Focusing on the discipline of writing studies, this collection addresses the sense of crisis that many educators experience in this age of austerity. The chapters in this book chronicle how neoliberal political economy shapes writing assessments, curricula, teacher agency, program administration, and funding distribution. Contributors also focus on how neoliberal political economy dictates the direction of scholarship, because the economic and political agenda shaping the terms of work, the methods of delivery, and the ways of valuing and assessing writing also shape the primary concerns and directions of scholarship. Composition in the Age of Austerity offers critical accounts of how the restructuring of higher education is shaping the daily realities of composition programs. The book documents the effects and implications of the current restructuring, examines how cherished rhetorical ideals actually leave the field unprepared to respond effectively to defunding and corporatizing trends, and establishes points of departure for collective response.

Download or read book Nancy Werlock s Diary Season Two written by Julie Ann Dawson and published by Bards and Sages Publishing. This book was released on with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Nancy Werlock is one of the most successful marriage counselors in the Delaware Valley. Some credit her uncanny empathy. Some credit her quick wit and quirky sense of humor. But Nancy also has a unique set of skills she didn’t learn from any psychology training. Nancy is a sixth generation demonologist, and though she upset her mother when she decided to pursue a mundane professional instead of taking up the family business, she’s kept her magical skills sharp by integrating a few choice spells into her counseling practice. Nancy Werlock’s Diary follows Nancy’s daily trials and troubles as she struggles to juggle her professional obligations with her familial ones. Each set of stories is a stand-alone collection that provides a window into the life of a modern day warlock. And while Nancy may have a few arcane tricks at her disposal, her problems are surprisingly relatable (even when her mother is giving her a guilt trip from beyond the grave). This compilation includes Episodes eight through thirteen, which were previously released individually as digital shorts.

Download or read book The Sunburned Corpse written by Lawrence Lariar and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s a heady cocktail of business, pleasure, and murder for Manhattan PI Steve Conacher, who’s cruising into danger in the Caribbean. When popular cartoonist Lawrence Lariar decided to moonlight as a mystery writer, creating comic book artist turned amateur sleuth Homer Bull was a natural. From the 1940s through the 1960s, Lariar continued to switch from sketching caricatures to sketchy characters, writing hardboiled crime fiction under his own name as well as the pseudonyms Michael Stark, Adam Knight, Michael Lawrence, and Marston La France, and creating a series of memorable gumshoes. Now his classic whodunits are available as ebooks. For New York private dick and landlubber Steve Conacher, it’s a dream assignment: a free cruise to tropical San Juan to skip trace a budding young artist and runaway heiress. So far, the hunt for Nancy Scott is a pleasure—especially when his first contact is paradise incarnate. She’s smart, sexy, clever, and goes down as easy as a shot of aquavit. She’s also ready and willing to help Conacher on his search. Maybe that’s why somebody just throttled the fun-loving adventuress to death. Now Conacher is looking into a murder, too. When his colliding investigations lead to a mysterious art gallery in Puerto Rico, run by a half-blind painter, Conacher learns just how deeply involved he is in the sun-kissed secrets of two women—one missing, one dead—that are beginning to threaten his own life. The Sunburned Corpse is the 4th book in the PI Steve Conacher Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Nancy cooked 3 meals a day for everyone, washed the dishes, cleaned house, raised a garden, washed the clothes by hand, ironing, in those days they had to do their own sewing, and many other chores. (Without all the conveniences of today of electricity and automatic machines.) Nancy married at age 17 to Ira Duff. They began a family...and then they had a tragedy happen. She stayed by her man, through the good times and the not so good times. They were separated for awhile, but distance could not keep them apart. They moved many times to avoid the tragic outcome of an incident. Nancy and Ira had sixteen (16) children and were married for more than fifty-five years. Nancy lived a long life of 94 years. This is their story... It is the author's desire that you will appreciate the life of a young woman and man beginning a very full life and the many obstacles that came with trying to raise a family, make a living and having something that just won't go away that they had to deal with it for eleven long years. You must read the novel to see how they survived the many trials. Their Love, Faith, and Courage to keep going one day at a time. You will laugh, cry and maybe get mad when you read this novel.

Download or read book Evidence of V written by Sheila O'Connor and published by Rose Metal Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In an ambitious blend of fact and fiction, including family secrets, documents from the era, and a thin, fragmentary case file unsealed by the court, novelist Sheila O'Connor tells the riveting story of V, a talented fifteen-year-old singer in 1930s Minneapolis who aspires to be a star. Drawing on the little-known American practice of incarcerating adolescent girls for "immorality" in the first half of the twentieth century, O'Connor follows young V from her early work as a nightclub entertainer to her subsequent six-year state school sentence for an unplanned pregnancy. As V struggles to survive within a system only nominally committed to rescue and reform, she endures injustices that will change the course of her life and the lives of her descendants. Inspired by O'Connor's research on her unknown maternal grandmother and the long-term effects of intergenerational trauma, Evidence of V: A Novel in Fragments, Facts, and Fictions is a poignant excavation of familial and national history that remains disturbingly relevant-a harrowing story of exploitation and erasure, and the infinite ways in which girls, past and present, are punished for crimes they didn't commit. O'Connor's collage novel offers an engaging balance between illuminating a shameful and hidden chapter of American history and captivating the reader with the vivid and unforgettable character of V."--
