Writing is hard work and can be difficult to wedge into a frenetic academic schedule. How can we write it all while still having a life?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this second edition of his popular guidebook, Paul Silvia offers fresh advice to help you overcome barriers to writing and use your time more productively. After addressing some common excuses and bad habits, he provides practical strategies to motivate students, professors, researchers, and other academics to become better and more prolific writers. Silvia draws from his own experience in psychology to explain how to write, submit, and revise academic work, from journal articles to books, all without sacrificing evenings, weekends, and vacations.
