Send Vikki any questions you'd like answered on the show!

We all have times where we need to get on with writing our thesis/paper/promotion materials/grant, but we're not. We procrastinate, we tell ourselves we don't have time, we worry that we're not good enough, when really we want to write it! In this episode, I'll help you uncover the 7 thoughts that are stopping you getting on, and 7 thoughts that you might want to think instead!

Twitter accounts I mention in this episode are: 

@writethatphd – for lots of links to writing resources

@drjenncumming– for lots of advice about writing and critiquing strategies

@verymessyjamie – who supports PhD students to find more balance, ease, joy and clarity.
