Are you imagining your harshest critics while you write? Is that making writing less enjoyable? Is it making your writing more defensive? In this track I talk about why this is not necessary. There is a receptive audience for your work, and it is these people you are writing for. I suggest some practical strategies for imagining that audience as you write.Read the post here: https://jovanevery.co.uk/stop-writing-for-harshest-critics/For more content like this, sign up to the monthly newsletter: jovanevery.co.uk/newsletterOr join the Academic Writing Studio: academicwritingstudio.co.uk Support me on KoFi here: https://ko-fi.com/jovanevery Find me on Linked In here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jovanevery/ Or follow along on Facebook here: facebook.com/JoVEAcademicCareerCoach I'm on Twitter/X here, but less often: twitter.com/JoVanEvery

I came across a blog post by an artist that resonated with things I know academics also experience. I’d like to share it with you.In it, the author talks about her own recent experience of being mentored, then her own experience of teaching and mentoring other artists. When you read the piece you might want to substitute “research” or “writing” for “art”.I quote some passages and discuss them.
