In this rumination on academic writing otherwise, after Taylor and Benozzo, I address a number of important issues they raise. These include notions such as the academic-writing-machine, authorship, writership, and postauthorship. Throughout the article, I compare and contrast their views with examples from a variety of sources including some of my own articles. I especially comment on the fitness of autoethnography, bricolage, postacademic, and quasi-posthumous writing as well as academic ranting as examples of writing otherwise.
