Steven Schreiner. A Portrait of the Student as a Young Writer: Re-Evaluating Emig and the Process Movement.

Schreiner, Steven. "A Portrait of the Student as a Young Writer: Re-Evaluating Emig and the Process Movement." CCC 48.1 (1997): 86-104.

Abstract:

Schreiner revisits key implications of Janet Emig's use of literary authorship in her composing process scholarship: students are inherently artists, good writing is literary writing, and composing is solitary. He acknowledges her work as intended to be libratory, even though he critiques it for modeling composing requiring privileged levels of preparedness and instruction in English. He also acknowledges that studying the processes of individual writers continues as the "first school of thought" on composition research.
