Wendy Bishop, former Kellogg Hunt Professor of English at Florida State University, is the author or editor of a number of books, essays, and articles on composition and creative writing pedagogy and writing research, including Acts of Revision; The Subject Is Writing, Third Edition; The Subject Is Story; The Subject Is Research; and The Subject Is Reading, as well as Ethnographic Writing Research, Elements of Alternate Style, and In Praise of Pedagogy, all published by Boynton/Cook.
From her "Autobiography" l997 poetry collection:
"My lives line up like clothes on a clothesline.
A shirt billows out in grass-
sweet-smelling dry sun. A skirt hangs inanimate
in drizzle rain. My lives dream
as wind rises, bath towel flapping and solitary.
Why, even now, my lives
snap off the line and fly into space
between this place and my other lives."
