Hello world.

I'm Eric Detweiler, Professor of English and director of the Public Writing and Rhetoric program at Middle Tennessee State University. I research and teach courses about rhetoric and writing pedagogy, digital writing, podcasting and video games, and public writing. Check out the CV page for more details about my research and writing projects.

Due to my ever-expanding exasperation with the tech-sector forces shaping the post-Web 2.0 internet, I am currently migrating my site to this domain and rebuilding it from scratch using HTML and CSS. The migration is mostly complete, though many of the links here still point to content hosted on my old WordPress site. For now, if you want to access that site or track down things that aren't working here, you can visit RhetEric.org.

Got a question? Email me!

Got more time to kill? Well, you could read my book, Responsible Pedagogy, or listen to my podcast, Rhetoricity.
