Writing Your Dissertation- You don’t have to go it alone.
If you are on this page, chances are, a dissertation coach is what you need. If you are not a writer, writing your dissertation can result in excruciating stress and anxiety. Let’s face it, academic advisors, who are typically not trained writers themselves, say things like:
“just publish a few articles and string them together as chapters with an intro, and voila, you’ve got a dissertation!”
or,
“just gather your field data and then write it up–the research will speak for itself!” Even though they mean well, and support you with the specialized knowledge you need for your field, their advice–when it comes to writing the dissertation often fails to clearly explain what you need to do, or how to meet their expectations or, even more importantly, how to write your dissertation.
You’re not alone if you feel stressed out, anxious, overwhelmed, or under-prepared to write an academic book length manuscript that you can be proud of. Sadly, many smart, capable, even stellar, graduate students struggle when faced with this significant writing task.
Based on my professional experience, Ph.D paralysis–an inability to write or “writer’s block”–right at the point where the writing should begin–is so common to academic researchers it deserves it’s own title in the DSM-5. So, if you feel paralyzed in writing, don’t worry, you’re not alone AND you don’t have to go it alone.
That said, what I offer is not a “dissertation writing service” Your academic accomplishments are your own and your writing should be too. “Ghostwriters” for a dissertation–and other unethical websites are selling to cynicism or desperation, or both. Instead, pull back from the abyss and regain your confidence. You can get the help you need to guide you in writing your dissertation, at any point in your process.
The Fine Art of Coaching You in How to Write a Dissertation
Writing your dissertation doesn’t have to be hard. While you do need preparation in your field of study, you don’t have to know everything about writing to write your dissertation effectively.
I know how to guide you to begin, write, and finish your dissertation. As an experienced writing coach and university writing program professor, I have helped thousands of people to improve their writing and complete large academic projects with laudable results.
Unfortunately, a lot of websites or books (written by writers!) on “how to write your dissertation” reinforce the obstacles, not the solutions.
