How this programme gets you from struggling to publish to getting multiple articles a year

❌
I want to stop going around and around in circles when drafting journal articles

👏
Now I have, for the first time ever, logical predictable drafting steps that take me from start to finish

❌
I want to stop procrastinating and returning to  reading to self soothe because this takes way too much of my time and isn't necessary

👏
Now I know exactly when the reading starts, how to execute, and most importantly when enough is enough. I know when to stop and have so much more time to actually WRITE

❌
I want to stop feeling like there are ways to better articulate this argument or contribution, but I've never been taught the techniques

👏
Now I know the techniques, and have been supported in implementing them over and over so that they are second nature

❌
I want to stop feeling like a burden when I ask colleagues for feedback and/or overcome the fear of sharing early drafts

👏
Now I have shared my work and had detailed feedback on each draft I know exactly how to make the most of that opportunity and implement it

❌
I want to stop feeling like reviewers did not read the paper I wrote and getting frustrated with the peer review process

👏
Now I know exactly how to pitch my papers for maximum impact and quality, peer reviews are easy to implement and are on target with helpful suggestions

❌
I want to stop getting stuck and letting papers sit in the 'desk drawer' half way done but never finished

👏
Now I work through my papers, methodically, consistently and with ease to submission and no work is wasted 

This is the skillset every Academic needs

This is the EXACT 7 Step Framework that saved hours and protected me from burnout. I went from not knowing how long it took to write an article 😳, to KNOWING I could execute in 60 hours. That gave me choices.

More life. Less work. Different research. Work that spoke to my values.

Don't you want the same?

I'm Dr Melanie Smith

I created Master Journal Article Writing after I realised the writing journal article was THE NUMBER ONE thing academic clients asked for my help with.
 
We all write journal articles. But let's be honest, we don't really enjoy this genre, even though it is critical to career success. Who wouldn't rather do one more book chapter instead? Right?

Except...all that effort, for minimum reward.
 
With a few tweaks, you could turn each one into a high quality journal paper, and get maximum reward. But there are so many unspoken rules, so many techniques that are not taught. It can be hit and miss.

So i created this programme to give you everything you need to become a master of this genre. Step by step training materials, but also, live feedback and support from me in the group coaching.

My 7 Step Framework has been refined from my own practice over years - first as an academic and then as a coach - until it delivers everything you need.

I've been coaching academic writers for 6 years...

I'm an EU Law scholar, published author of peer-reviewed papers, chapters, books, and edited collections. I've served as a consultant to the European Parliament, held a tenured Associate Professor position at Cardiff University for over 13 years, and led writing courses for faculty. With 18+ years of experience, I've contributed to research, publishing, program development, and teaching/supervision at all levels at Russell Group Universities in the UK.

I've helped thousands of academic clients to foster a better relationship with their writing, maximizing productivity while minimizing time investment.

I established Academic Coach to provide the skills, mentorship, and coaching I wish I had, utilizing cutting-edge research in writing productivity, neuroscience, and behavioral psychology.

I work with Universities and individuals across different disciplines, from High Arts to Hard Sciences, training and coaching academics across the world inside and outside institutions.

I've been where you are, and know exactly what you need to flourish

This isn't just about learning the basic steps...

This is about changing how your execute this genre at the highest level, elevating the quality of your writing
