The Everyday Writer, Eighth Edition, is an open invitation to develop awareness about the language we choose and use to write about topics we care about. It invites us to learn, practice, and examine the expectations of U.S. academic writing – but it also honors the varieties of English we use and the experimenting we do to fit a range of writing situations. The new edition also includes new strategies for evaluating sources, new graphic organizers for writing arguments, new model writing, and an expanded definition of expertise for research writers.

Andrea Lunsford, with new contributing authors, offers a student-friendly companion that builds the skills, habits, and strategies college writers need to make decisions – to make something happen in the world – every day.

The best tool for practicing language awareness

The Everyday Writer, Eighth Edition, is an open invitation to develop awareness about the language we choose and use to write about topics we care about. It invites us to learn, practice, and examine the expectations of U.S. academic writing – but it also honors the varieties of English we use and the experimenting we do to fit a range of writing situations. The new edition also includes new strategies for evaluating sources, new graphic organizers for writing arguments, new model writing, and an expanded definition of expertise for research writers.

Andrea Lunsford, with new contributing authors, offers a student-friendly companion that builds the skills, habits, and strategies college writers need to make decisions – to make something happen in the world – every day.

Features

Rhetorical grounding The Everyday Writer is built on the idea that empowering writers and strengthening their skills starts with creating awareness of the choices they have and encouraging reflection on the choices they make.

Highly visual; friendly and easy to use The handbook’s friendly design and plentiful illustrations, checklists, and boxes encourage students to open the book and use it. We’ve worked hard to make sure that information in the book is easy to find and inviting to read.

Comprehensive coverage of critical thinking, critical reading, and argument The Everyday Writer supports students with practical advice to help them complete the most common types of college reading and writing assignments.

Awareness that academic writing is multimodal Throughout the book, rhetorical considerations assume that students are producing a variety of print and digital compositions — websites, wikis, annotated playlists, presentations, and more.

Integrated advice about U.S. academic English Information for multilingual writers is integrated throughout the book and accessible to students from all language, cultural, and educational backgrounds. Look for the “Multilingual” icon and boxes called “Language, Culture, and Context.”

New to This Edition

Achieve with The Everyday Writer provides trusted content with a robust e-textbook, diagnostics with personalized study plans, and writing tools that guide students through drafting, peer review, plagiarism checks, reflection, and revision. For corequisite composition courses, Achieve lets students sign in to their composition and corequisite sections with one easy process–and no additional fees.

A revised opening chapter introduces the handbook as a tool for developing the habits of open-minded readers, writers, and speakers and for balancing the risks and rewards of the choices we make as communicators.

New strategies for critical reading, critical thinking, and fact-checking help students respond to the information and misinformation in news sources and in social media — and help them balance open-mindedness and skepticism as they evaluate sources.


Substantially revised coverage of the research process broadens the notions of “expert” and “expertise” and emphasizes lived experience and community research as inclusive alternatives to traditional scholarly research.

New graphic organizers for argument writing help visual learners plan and execute.

Fresh perspectives from new contributing authors Staci M. Perryman-Clark (Western Michigan University) and Jamila M. Kareem (University of Central Florida) helped us rethink terminology, pedagogy, language, and online learning; Kendra N. Bryant (North Carolina A&T State University) revised chapters in Teaching with Lunsford Handbooks to emphasize antiracist teaching and best practices for teaching with a handbook.

Andrea A. Lunsford

Andrea Lunsford, Louise Hewlett Nixon Professor of English emerita and former Director of the Program in Writing and Rhetoric at Stanford University, joined the Stanford faculty in 2000. Prior to this appointment, she was Distinguished Professor of English at The Ohio State University (1986-2000) and, before that, Associate Professor and Director of Writing at the University of British Columbia (1977-86) and Associate Professor of English at Hillsborough Community College. A frequent member of the faculty of the Bread Loaf School of English, Andrea earned her B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Florida and completed her Ph.D. in English at The Ohio State University (1977). She holds honorary degrees from Middlebury College and The University of Ôrebro.

Andrea's scholarly interests include the contributions of women and people of color to rhetorical history, theory, and practice; collaboration and collaborative writing, comics/graphic narratives; translanguaging and style, and technologies of writing. She has written or coauthored many books, including Essays on Classical Rhetoric and Modern Discourse; Singular Texts/Plural Authors: Perspectives on Collaborative Writing; and Reclaiming Rhetorica: Women in the History of Rhetoric, as well as numerous chapters and articles. For Bedford/St. Martin’s, she is the author of The St. Martin's Handbook, The Everyday Writer, and EasyWriter; the co-author (with John Ruszkiewicz) of Everything’s an Argument and (with John Ruszkiewicz and Keith Walters) of Everything’s an Argument with Readings; and the co-author (with Lisa Ede) of Writing Together: Collaboration in Theory and Practice. She is also a regular contributor to the Bits teaching blog on Bedford/St. Martin’s English Community site.

Andrea has given presentations and workshops on the changing nature and scope of writing and critical language awareness at scores of North American universities, served as Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication, as Chair of the Modern Language Association Division on Writing, and as a member of the MLA Executive Council. In her spare time, she serves on the Board of La Casa Roja’s Next Generation Leadership Network, as Chair of the Kronos Quartet Performing Arts Association--and works diligently if not particularly well in her communal organic garden.
