Everyone’s an Author with Readings (Second Edition)
Everyone’s an Author with Readings provides a modern approach to writing that bridges the gap between students’ everyday communication and the requirements of academic and professional discourse. Authored by Andrea Lunsford and published by W. W. Norton & Company, this 2nd edition emphasizes that writing is a social act, occurring across a wide variety of genres and platforms. By focusing on rhetorical situations, the book helps writers understand how to navigate different audiences, purposes, and contexts effectively.
This edition includes a diverse collection of readings that illustrate the power of effective rhetoric in the real world. It covers essential skills such as conducting research, constructing persuasive arguments, and documenting sources ethically, all while encouraging writers to embrace their own unique voices. The content is designed to show that the skills used in social media, blogging, and civic engagement are directly transferable to the high-stakes writing required in college and beyond.
