Academic writing doesn't have to be turgid prose that is agony to read (and to write). Complex ideas and abstract concepts can be expressed clearly and in language that’s attractive to all interested readers. This session is for students who aspire to write clearly and elegantly in their discipline and who would like to develop their style.

Writing time is precious. It's also often either interrupted or wasted at least in part in procrastination. This workshop is an opportunity to review our own writing habits; explore and practise writerly techniques that can help use precious writing time more efficiently; set up realistic and imaginative daily routines; and analyse when it’s best to ease off and when to press on.

There are many reasons to share your research outside your discipline, but it can be challenging to communicate complex ideas concisely and coherently to non-specialists. This practical workshop helps you develop a pitch for ONE non-specialist publication (which you identify before the workshop).
