In our latest episode we talk with Anna Fancett (Researcher Development Online, University of Warwick), who contributed to our recent special issue on research culture. We talk through Anna’s varied international career, as well as her current work helping to develop academics' writing and publishing skills. We also take a look at Anna’s recent article in Exchanges (Developing Researchers’ Writing Skills: Acritical reflection of developing a series of academic writing workshops for postgraduates) and what lessons can be drawn from it. We chat too about Anna’s varied publication experiences, including some valuable advice in terms of positively engaging with peer-review and reviewers. We end as always with advice for early career scholars about publishing and crafting their early articles.
