Reviews / Votes
"Established originally as a backstage for two scholars to develop their teaching practices the Critical-Creative Writing Laboratory is opened-up for all in this book. Running counter to the current culture of instrumentalism and individualism in higher education, this a passionate, theoretically grounded text championing the potential of reciprocal care in the creative act. Chemi and Firing urge us to look to other to live, love, learn as we lean into freedom through collaborative, reflexive, generative writing." (Allan Owens, Professor Emeritus RECAP University of Chester, UK National Teaching Fellow, Visiting Professor LUT University Finland)
"In a fast changing world with many crisis occurring, this book gives me hope! The book gives insights, reflections, and makes me stop and notice the world, myself and the relationships around me. The book invites me in to a living laboratory full of enthusiasm and critical thinkning - and I will say it is a groundbreaking book promoting a pedagogy of love and freedom. Chemi and Firing has created a brilliant book: critical, eye-opening, intriguing and very well written." (Professor Ottar Ness, Norwegian University of Science and Technology)
"This gem of a book opens up new grounds and possibilities for transforming the process and practice of writing. Tatiana Chemi and Kristian Firing uniquely evidence practices of writing that not only disrupt established traditions but create new and alternative possibilities. Using multi sensory arts-based tools, along with theatrical and inspiring performative metaphors, this is a treasure trove that playfully unlocks the writer in all of us. Whether it is the synergies of scholarly and educational thinking, or the choreographic release of of the hopeful possibility that another possible is possible after all, we are invited into a writerly journey that unleashes the writer in all of us." (Pamela Burnard, Professor of Arts, Creativities and Educations, University of Cambridge)
