Jumpstart your academic writing.
A 2-hour session for postgraduates with writing coach Katharine D'Souza,
In this workshop, we'll investigate techniques for overcoming the fear of the blank page, creating a blurb to inspire you and share with others, what should be in your introduction, how to keep going once you've started writing, and how to give and receive feedback.
We'll work on a short exercise during the session, and Katharine will share some tips to take away.
The session is suitable for anyone embarking on or struggling with the writing element of their doctoral thesis or master's dissertation. It will equip postgraduates to use their writing to communicate their subject knowledge effectively.
Katharine has worked in higher education for fifteen years, currently as Research and Data Analyst for University Alliance and formerly at the Graduate School of the University of Birmingham.
That context informs this session but draws on much of the experience she has gained in her parallel career as an editor, mostly of fiction, where she has worked alongside writers to enhance their work across a variety of long-form projects.
