[Personal_archives] Digital archiving practices of writers

A colleague forwarded email from one of the co-investigators, Devin Becker, introducing the survey as follows: 

I've put together a survey to study the digital archiving practices of emerging writers.  My co-investigator, Collier Nogues (a poet with a book coming out from Four Way) and I are trying to get a sense, basically, of how people are saving/archiving their work, and how this might affect their writing practices and the practices of special collection librarians (like you) in the future. We're presenting our initial findings at the personal digital archiving conference in San Francisco next month.  

That's as much as I know at the moment. 
Cheers,
Michael Forstrom

Good morning,
Many of you might be interested in the following survey at the
University of Idaho to track the digital archiving practices of emerging
writers.  I'm afraid I can't dredge up any additional information but if
our U.S. colleagues can add to this, it would be appreciated.
