In a modern era of social media and with the constancy of \"crisis,\" knowing when, how, and why to respond quickly is increasingly important. In \u003ci\u003eWriting Emergencies\u003c\/i\u003e, a diverse group of authors contribute scholarly, narrative-based discussions of writing emergencies, descriptions of more and less successful strategies, and a reflective conclusion that offers implications for writing studies praxis and theory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this collection, contributors demonstrate the reality of writing emergencies-in their own writing lives, classrooms, and programs-and they offer both self- and community-focused approaches for response. Chapters focus on discernment and prioritization, recognizing that all stressors are not necessarily emergencies. Instead, expanding our vocabulary for (and subsequent understanding) of the kinds of difficulties we come across can build our professional capacity and support greater career sustainability. The volume also illustrates the role of coalitions in navigating writing emergencies and how purposefully building and activating these coalitions subverts some challenges before they become emergencies, particularly those that are recurrent or manufactured.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWriting Emergencies\u003c\/i\u003e both names and grapples with writing emergencies and offers insights for capacity-building in the acts of filtering and prioritizing competing urgent demands. The findings are meaningful for all leaders, students, and teachers who center care in their relationships with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHolly Hassel\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of writing studies and director of First-Year Writing at Michigan Technological University.
