Dr. Elizabeth Ketner has been teaching writing and literature courses at Colby since 2012. Her courses are designed around her own experiences becoming a more effective writer: she knows that writers benefit from deep engagement with smart, interesting writing; she understands how important practice is to strengthening writing skills, and she sees every writing project as an opportunity to experiment with new approaches to the task at hand. Her research on early modern poetry and prose has been published by the University of Illinois and Ashgate Press.
