This is the blog for past and present students of the Writing in Practice course at Jadavpur University Department of English. It's firstly a forum for discussing the course, but also an exchange for creativity in the WIP community. WIP is open to final year UG and PG students and runs in the autumn semester. The course coordinator is Rimi B. Chatterjee (Erythrocyte).

Beleaguered WIP Book: SOS!
Firstly, my apoplogies for the delay in publishing the WIP book. May I assure you this is not due to lack of diligence on the part of the editors. We have in fact finished editing it and are doing the layout. However, we are stumped for lack of money. As I mentioned a while ago, we had been given a grant by the UPE fund for students. However, this was withdrawn without explanation. We are now looking for sponsors. Eight and a half thousand rupees will produce a very basic book, but we would like to make it a little nicer than last time, with illustrations and better lamination. so we will need something like 15 thousand. With the CAS grant to the department ending, there's no hope of money from that quarter. It looks like all avenues are closed except for private sponsorship. Any ideas?
