This workshop allows you to receive critique on, and if necessary workshop, advanced texts of PhD production (peer review articles, thesis chapters) with specialist reviewers and with your peers. Issues addressed can vary according to the nature of the work presented, but we will cover everything from the issues of co-authoring, writing fluency, clarity and economy. Typical exercises included re-writing to reduce word count, syntax checks, “killing your darlings”, refining the relationship between texts and footnotes and entertaining alternative models in terms of form or mediation genre.
