newest issue of LWI Journal available online

Want something more interesting to read this weekend than student briefs (fascinating though they may be)? The Legal Writing Institute has just released Volume 13 of the LWI Journal, and the articles and essay are all publicly available online--in other words, for free. Much good reading here, as evidenced by this list of authors and titles:

• Susan E. Thrower, Teaching Legal Writing through Subject-Matter Specialties: A Reconception of Writing across the Curriculum
• Laurie C. Kadoch, The Third Paradigm: Bringing Legal Writing “Out of the Box” and into the Mainstream: A Marriage of Doctrinal Subject Matter and Legal Writing Doctrine
• Mitchell Nathanson, Dismantling the “Other”: Understanding the Nature and Malleability of Groups in the Legal Writing Professorate’s Quest for Equality
