  2. Hi, I am one of the editors of Writing Spaces and have noticed your post. Thank you for posting. We have just released the second volume, which is also available for a free download at www.writingspaces.org. If you are using the work in at your institution, we'd be interested in hearing your impressions.

    Thank you,
