S1 Ep 05 Missed a Writing Deadline? Here's What Every Academic Needs to Hear
Have you ever had that awful moment at 11:00 pm when you realize… you’re not going to finish your chapter in time? 😱
If you’re a grad student, early-career academic, or scholar balancing research with a full life, you intimately know and feel the pressure of writing deadlines. In this episode of Crayons in My Manuscript, Dr. Stacey Garrepy shares a personal story about missing her own review article deadline, and what it taught her about time management, perfectionism, and academic writing.
If you’ve ever thought:
• “Maybe I’m not cut out for this.”
• “There’s not enough time to write the way I want to.”
• “What if I don’t finish in time?”
This episode is for you.
In today’s conversation we talk about:
• Why academic writing deadlines feel overwhelming
• Perfectionism’s hidden role in missed deadlines
• Building a sustainable writing system (even especially with a busy life)
• Time-blocking and the Pomodoro Technique for academic writing
• Reassessing deadlines with honesty and self-compassion
Whether you’re writing during nap time, juggling teaching and research, or navigating academia as a first-gen scholar, you belong here.
Your voice matters. Your scholarship matters. Every sentence you write counts.
