This book focuses on the concept of learner writer identity in the context of foreign language writing. The author demonstrates that the process of writing in a foreign language is much more complex and personal than many writing instructors may assume. The book?s theoretical chapters address such concepts as bilingualism, the process of L2 writing, and identity in L2 writing. The book?s empirical section discusses the students? views on writing in L1 and in L2, the students? writing processes in both languages, and the students? identities in L1 and L2 writing. It is shown that writing in L2 poses problems of a linguistic nature; however, for the advanced EFL learners writing in L2 also creates opportunities they would never have when composing in their mother tongue.
