The writing process: getting started

Trish Strzelecka
Wednesday 28 February 2024

For many researchers, starting to write is one of the most challenging aspects of doing a PhD. How do you know whether you are ready to turn ideas and outcomes into text? How do you overcome that sense of overwhelm that often accompanies the early stages of the writing process? This workshop provides practical tools and tips for making the transition into writing by developing focus, structure and a writing habit.

What previous participants have said about (the in-person version of) this course:

  • “Ideal because it addresses the mental blocks to writing – thus enabling you to work through the structural challenges of writing.”
  • “Very good to get you started on writing and useful tips. Encouragement to write!”
  • “I would recommend it to people who do not like writing and think nothing could help them going through the process.”
  • “Outstanding presenter – engaging, patient, authoritative.”
