Writing-Stories: Co-authoring "The Sea Monster," a Writing-Story

Laurel Richardson

Ohio State University

This text shows what it announces: two research problems. First, how are readings of texts affected by knowledge of their construction? Second, how do the specific circum stances in which we write affect what and how we write? The text shows what it talks about through a reprint of "The Sea Monster" followed by a "writing-story" about its co-authorship. The author proposes that, at this particular time, we valorize writing-sto ries, or stories of how we constructed our texts. Doing so would extend reflexivity into our writing practices, demystify writing, confirm our kinship to the humanities, and deepen and expand our writing/reading strategies.
