I’m thrilled to be participating in the NCPTW for the first time! Knowing The Dangling Modifier originated at NCPTW 1994, I have been eager to experience the event that kickstarted this conversation. My dream has been to witness the collaboration among peer tutors and fully immerse myself in this remarkable event.
If you’re curious about The Dangling Modifier and how you can get your work published, please join us for our workshop, “The Dangling Modifier: Bridging Writing Center Scholarship with the Public World,” taking place on Saturday from 1:15 pm to 2:30 pm. During our session, we’ll dive into the evolution of The Dangling Modifier (for more context, I invite you to read my post about “Starting the Conversation”), emphasize the importance of undergraduate publication, explore the process of writing in response to selected prompts, and discuss ways for undergraduate writing tutors to submit their work to the publication. If you have any questions about submissions, you can also find us at our Writing Center @ Penn State Learning table at the conference.
I’m incredibly excited to embark on this journey with my peers from across the nation, and I hope to meet you at the conference!
