Research is all about writing, but most Ph.D. programs don’t teach students how to produce the writing needed to get a Ph.D., publish research, or win fellowships and grants. “The Writing Workshop,” tells you everything you need to know about forming and running a successful writing group and provides invaluable tips on how to become better at and more comfortable with academic writing. The book is available to all in a free format. Access or download a free copy.  (2019, Sarnecka)
