My research areas are defined by the intersection of feminisms and technical communication. Feminist Technical Communication explores just that intersection and many of the sites of confluence—healthcare, risk, environmental rhetorics—for these two disciplines. This book builds upon my 2013 dissertation “Theorizing an Apparent Feminism in Technical Communication,” which won the Conference on College Composition and Communication Outstanding Dissertation Award in Technical Communication. My work has appeared in Computers and Composition, Journal of Business and Technical Communication, Technical Communication Quarterly, Programmatic Perspectives, and Peitho: Journal of the Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric & Composition. (My older publications can be found under the surname Frost.) The same theoretical commitments that inform my research also guide my teaching; I hope my students describe me as fair, collaborative, curious, and open-minded.

    This is a sort of update to my Aug. 16 entry about the fight between Cris Cyborg Santos and Gina Carano. I noted in that post that the camera work done on the fight was different than the camera work done when male fighters face off. But, it wasn’t different…

  • Layout, Color, Graphics, and Typography … Oh my!

    Having read a Robin Williams text previously, The Non-Designer’s Web Book offered lessons that were somewhat familiar to me. I remember loving Williams’ writing in the past; I found it spunky and refreshing. I still think it is, to some extent, but read alongside Penny McIntire’s text, it actually came…

  • Bringing in Linguistics

    I’ve just begun Spring courses (I love this time of the semester; it’s so optimistic!) and one of my new ones is a required doctoral seminar in linguistics. Although I don’t come from the linguistics side of English, the two linguistics classes I’ve had have been really wonderful experiences. This…

  • Seminar in Linguistics

    I’m currently enrolled in English 540: Seminar in Linguistics and Language Study. I’ll be using this blog to keep track of some of my work for that class. I’ll use the tag “eng540″ to mark a post relating to this course. English 540 is a required doctoral seminar in which…
