Multimodal and Digital Creative Writing Pedagogies offers a breadth of expertise and informed pedagogies on teaching multimodal and digital creative writing in the college classroom. This book presents engaging methods to inspire student writing beyond traditional, print-based texts. The contributors in this volume, all experienced creative writing instructors, share indispensable strategies for incorporating multimodal projects, including video game poetry, fan fiction authorship, digital storytelling, podcasting, online literary publications, creative installations, writing with image and sound, and multisensory approaches to creative writing. This collection also tackles matters of accessibility and inclusion vis-a-vis technology in the classroom and examines the challenges and rewards of incorporating novel approaches to creative writing.
