The document describes the process of an essay written for a class being delivered to broader audiences through conference presentation and journal publication. It took many steps like submitting proposals and revisions to share the writing in new contexts with different audiences and purposes. These delivery steps are often invisible but make the writing's "underlife" visible by bringing it out into the world through various mediums and circulation.
WATTPAD: WRITING SHORT STORIES IN A DIGITAL WORLDMaurício Coelho
This paper has as theme the use of Wattpad as a tool in teaching and learning English as a Foreign Language (ESL) concerning the improvement of the writing skill, and its objective is to investigate the possibility of the production of short stories on this platform. The proposed activities took into account the writing as a process according to Tribble (1996) with the purpose of the publication of a virtual anthology on the platform. Besides the discussion upon the written approach (TRIBBLE, 1996), to compose the theoretical basis, it was also noted the importance of the literary texts in the classroom, the concepts of short story and digital literacy. Through this teaching proposal, we seek to observe that using Wattpad can be efficient for the improvement of the writing skill, since students often have contact with these apps. Learners, as well as educators, can benefit from Wattpad inside and outside the classroom.

2. Overview
• The underlife of an
essay
• What is delivery? A
(very) brief explanation
• Group activity:
delivering writing
• Wrap-up
3. Once upon a time I wrote an essay…
• Context/Venue: Malea
Powell’s History and
Theory of Rhetoric
course at MSU, 2008
• Audience: Malea and
my peers
• Purpose: Final project
demonstrating my
learning
4. I decided propose it to a conference…
• Context/Venue:
Feminisms and
Rhetorics Conference
2009 at MSU
• Audience: Colleagues,
grad students, other
rhetoricians
• Purpose: To present
findings to the field
5. To do that, I had to do
many things…
• Research the conference
• Write a proposal abstract
• Submit the abstract
• Wait
• Receive my acceptance
• Prepare the essay for
presentation
6. I presented my essay…
• Context/Venue:
Feminisms and Rhetorics
Conference 2009 at MSU
• Audience: Colleagues,
grad students, other
rhetoricians
• Purpose: To present
findings to the field
And someone asked to publish it!
7. I decided to publish it!
• Context/Venue: Moon City
Review, a journal of poetry,
stories, art, and criticism
• Audience: Colleagues in many
different fields of English
studies including creative
writers
• Purpose: Sharing ideas about
race and performance;
expression…and a publication!
8. I had some work to
do…
• Research the journal
• Do a formal submission
(write a cover letter,
navigate the Submittable
site, etc.)
• Wait
• Receive comments from the
editors
• Revise and re-send the essay
• Wait
9. And my essay was finally published…
• Platt, Julie. “When I
Played Indian.”
Moon City Review
2010 (Fall 2010).
• But is this the end of
the story of this
essay? Or is it only
the beginning?
11. • Like the canon of style, delivery
refers to how you write/say/do
something.
• In antiquity, it was mainly associated
with oratory.
• Once considered the most important
canon, it fell out of favor and has
been “recovered” several times.
• Its evolution has tended to follow
patterns of technological change.
12. • Today, delivery is more than
gesture or intonation. It concerns
both the medium and the
circulation of discourse.
• Media: alphabetic text, video,
audio, graffiti, etc. What form
discourse takes.
• Circulation: letters, blogs,
YouTube, billboards, etc. How
discourse moves.
13. • Many steps were involved in delivering my writing
outside of its original classroom context.
• In order to circulate it (make it move), I had to
change its medium (change its form).
• I had to consider changes in things like
context/venue, audience, and purpose.
14. • Many steps are required
to bring a piece of
writing out into the
world, but this is often
invisible.
• This “underlife” of
writing is what we can
make visible by paying
attention to delivery.
