How are poetry, fiction, and communication scholarship related?

You might be asking this question when you come across this page. And there are several ways I could answer that question. Narrative plays a large part in my communication research. Each of the publications on this page play with narrative in some way; even the poetry publications represent an attempt to understand through writing the ways story, image, and speech shape our understandings of self, others, and relationships.

Also, much of my research interrogates the intersections between humanistic ways of knowing and the more traditional social scientific aspects of communication scholarship. These selections illustrate my roots in the humanities and my attempts to play with voice, reader, audience, and linearity, which are major concerns in social scientific writing as well.
