[ATTW-L] Special Issue of Reflections based on ATTW 2021 has been published!

[Gonzales,Laura]

Dear ATTW Community,

I'm very happy to share that the special issue of Reflections: A Journal of Community-Engaged Writing and Rhetoric stemming from the 2021 ATTW Virtual Conference has been published and is available here: https://reflectionsjournal.net

The 2021 Virtual Conference was ATTW's first virtual conference, for which we had record attendance that was then increased further at the 2022 Virtual Conference chaired by Drs. Sano-Franchini, Sackey, and Moore. As our community continues planning for the future while thinking about inclusivity and impact *first*, I'm glad we can reflect on the amazing work our members were able to produce in 2021, even under difficult circumstances. Thanks to Dr. Khirsten Scott's vision, presenters at the 2021 Virtual Conference were invited to meet and discuss how their work could expand beyond a single conference, write together, reflect, and build community. Very happy to share the result of this labor with our community.

Special thanks to all the contributors, to our amazing designer, Dr. Heather Noel Turner, for her work to make our issue accessible (and beautiful!), associate editor Dr. Heather Lang, assistant editor Alexander Slotkin, copyeditor Victoria Scholz, and to the ATTW Executive Committee for their support.

Laura
