Becoming a Writing Researcher immerses less experienced researchers in two critically important aspects for learning: deep identity work and extensive practice with and reflection on research strategies. It is practical in all the best ways: grounded in the lived experience of graduate student researchers, full of purposeful exercises and reflective activities, carefully attuned to the needs of newer researchers in Writing Studies. My students are far better off for having used this thoughtful guide for their own projects. -- Heidi Estrom, Boise State University An approachable but remarkably in-depth guide to qualitative research in writing. The case studies enable readers to imagine themselves becoming real researchers, and multiple examples illustrate a variety of approaches rather than just one 'right' way. -- Cheryl Geisler, Simon Fraser University, Canada
