[a note: I’m tagging this post as “Suggestions from others,” which, in a way, these are suggested readings from other writers, though it’s still kind of a bad label, but I also wonder about the social-ness of reading academic work, and that maybe it’s an apt enough label.]
Here’s an interesting one I just ran across:
Kohl, Herbert. “I Won’t Learn From You.” From _”I Won’t Learn From You” and Other Thoughts on Creative Maladjustment_. 1994. New York. The New Press. It addresses and contextualizes “resistance” to learning–in writing-courses and other venues.
Thanks for the suggestion!
