This year has been a year of recovery – and recovering my writing practice has been central to that. I am ending the year having a) completed this paper and b) submitted a grant application I said at the start of our coaching, 6 months ago, that if I got to this point, I would be delighted. And I am. Your support has been crucial in getting there. I am in a so much better place than I was at the start of the year.
Prof Melanie S.
Dean of Research, RG
Melanie has designed a no-nonsense, well rounded writing course which will appeal to any academic who needs a boost and very practical suggestions on how to carve out time for writing when faced with many teaching, administrative and management demands. In particular, I enjoyed learning about the emotional investment we have in writing, the way to deal with the ‘stories we tell ourselves’ that keep us from writing. The emphasis is on making writing a daily routine, however little time we might allocate, and foremost becoming a ‘happier’ rather than merely a more ‘productive’ writer.
