WriteClick is an online journal dedicated to publishing work by first and second year writing students enrolled in R_C courses at Appalachian State University. Instructors may nominate student writing that represents a range of genres, from videos to graphic images to digital texts to traditional academic essays. We are looking for works that are substantive, imaginative, carefully composed, designed, and edited.
For more information on our first and second year writing programs, please visit the following: Composition Program & Writing Across the Curriculum Program.
