Discourse Processes (https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/hdsp20/current) is the official journal of the Society for Text & Discourse, and publishes an annual special issue focused on presentations (both spoken and poster) given during the annual Society for Text & Discourse conference. 

We invite members to view the 2019 Society for Text and Discourse Conference Special Issue, which was recently published based on work that appeared at the 2019 annual meeting in New York City. 

We are extremely pleased to announce that a special issue, to appear in 2021, will be published representing work from the 2020 Society for Text & Discourse online meeting. Papers submitted for consideration to the special issue will go through the regular review process, with the goal of accelerating that process given the intended publication timeline. This is an excellent opportunity to publish your cutting-edge research in a timely fashion!

Submissions should be prepared according to the Discourse Processes manuscript guidelines found here.

All manuscripts should be submitted through the Discourse Processes submission portal as per those guidelines. In any such submission, indicate in your cover letter that he manuscript is being submitted for consideration in the “ST&D 2020 Special Issue.”

A Message from the Conference Chairs

Suffice to say, the 2020 annual conference did not go as we had initially planned - we all hoped to be seeing our friends and colleagues in person in Atlanta this July. Covid-19 and the recent social unrest within the United States have had obvious and profound impacts on the conference. We again want to thank the Atlanta conference committee for their hard work on organizing the face-to-face conference and we look forward to the conference in Atlanta to be held in 2022.

We thank all our members and authors for agreeing to participate in the virtual conference. Many of you may have had the opportunity to participate in virtual conferences already. Various societies have adopted different models. As you know, we have chosen to have a mixed conference with asynchronous dissemination for spoken papers and posters and some synchronous content. Our original intent was to have synchronous discussions, but as you know we decided to simplify the conference in response to current events. We strongly encourage you to read preprints, view the flipgrid summaries, and leave feedback or questions to authors of the many excellent research submissions. We recognize that the feedback we get on the research reported at this conference is a primary reason for the success of our annual meeting, and flipgrid provides a great resource to this end. While we’d all rather be in Atlanta, this format is an opportunity to read and reflect upon the many excellent papers presented at this conference. 

We want to thank Danielle McNamara and Jason Braasch for agreeing to give their keynote addresses honoring the Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award and Tom Trabasso Young Investigator Award. We also ask you to please join us in a special discussion of representation and social justice on July 21 from 2:15-3:15 EST. As always, we will have a Business Meeting at the conclusion of the conference (with fabulous prizes) and will also be voting on some important issues. The Business meeting will conclude with a toast to the 30th anniversary of the Society. Finally, we invite you all to join us in virtual fellowship during two online social hours on July 21 and July 22 from 3:15-5:00 PM EST. 

Finally, we sincerely thank our Conference Advisory Committee (Jenny Wiley, Pani Kendeou, Keith Millis, and Mike Wolfe) for their helpful organizing feedback, our Technology Committee (Sri Dandotkar, Scott Hinze, and Katie McCarthy) who will be providing tech support during the online sessions, our outstanding Program Review Committee members who provided such fantastic feedback to submitters, and our conference sponsors: Taylor & Francis and the College of St. Benedict – St. John’s University. 

Sincerely

Kate Bohn-Gettler, Joe Magliano, Mike Mensink, and Emily Smith

Chairs of the 2020 Virtual Conference of the Society for Text and Discourse
