Abstract | This article shares the story of one student writer that shows how the challenges of writing from sources are tied to issues of voice and authority. Keith was a student in the author's first college writing class in the fall of 2002. As he undertook a transition from high school to college writer, the author was transitioning from high school to college teacher: after beginning her career teaching secondary English, she had now returned to graduate school, moving into a career in English education. Watching Keith work, the author began to find new ways of thinking about the writer's voice in relation to the voices found in source texts. And in the nine years that have passed since she worked with Keith--years in which she has been engaged in research related to authority in writing--she has further come to link concerns about authority and acquiring a discourse to concerns about voice.
