In this episode, Charlie and Olivia are joined by a new contributor, Ana, as we discuss something that nearly all ECRs worry about: how to improve your academic writing!

Almost every humanities researcher is responsible for disseminating their research by writing about it. Whether you are trying to write your PhD thesis, writing a conference paper, writing a journal article, or hoping to one day write a book, developing good writing habits can have a huge impact on the success of your project.

We discuss our experiences and share our tips on 'writing rituals', including:

Environments: where and when do we write best?

Preparation: what do we do before we write?

How do we get started, and (more importantly) how do we know when to stop?
