This book is a study of creative drive and creative cognition in the context of expository composing processes. Highlighting incubation (the second stage of the creative process) as a crucial but often misconstrued and/or neglected event in the quest for insight, the author explores the nature of this elusive phenomenon from various angles, while also forwarding an argument of special significance to teachers of writing. A pedagogy informed by incubation theory can uniquely and profoundly assist students in negotiating the complex demands of producing text that rises above what might be labeled ""perfunctory"" or ""mundane.

Creativity and The Paris Review Interviews: A Discourse Analysis of Famous Writers' Composing Practices centers around a thematic discourse analysis of a 2000-page corpus of Paris Review interviews, focusing on the creative processes of some of the world's most famous fiction-writers and poets. The discourse analysis traces elements of the paradigmatic creative-process model—first insight, preparation, incubation, insight, verification—through the focal artists’ descriptions of their composing practices as embedded in the interview transcripts. That analysis also reveals multiple and significantemergent themes germane to fiction and poetry writing. The ultimate goal of this analysis is to identify patterns relevant to the aforementioned creative-process elements and themes that are suggestive of specific strategies writers can employ to facilitate their own composing acts—whether fictional, poetic, or expository. Such findings will also benefit teachers seeking to facilitate student success in the composition classroom. Such applications to expository writing are bolstered by a thorough treatment of scholarship on intersections between creativity theory and composition theory.

Invention and Craft: Exercising Creativity in College Writing and Research is a first-year college composition textbook that employs creativity theory to augment best practices in writing instruction. Promoting a problem-solving, insight-driven approach to composing, it casts students in the role of meaning-makers by pinpointing strategies for transforming knowledge, the hallmark of successful expository prose. The book’s explicit treatment of knowledge transfer fosters recognition of patterns within and across genres and encourages students to apply lessons learned in subsequent rhetorical situations. Furthermore, Invention and Craft provides an instructional framework that maps similarities between expository writing and creative activity in other venues as a means of demystifying the former and broadening students’ repertoire of composing strategies. Acknowledging individual cognitive styles and diverse interests, Invention and Craft places a high priority on energizing students and building their confidence as writers.
