Welcome to Writing Academic, a blog of tips for better academic writing. In this space, I'll be discussing some of the finer points of writing mechanics, grammar, and style. I'll also be offering suggestions for improving your writing process and reviewing resources that you might find helpful as an academic writer.
I've spent more than a decade working with graduate students, and in that time countless students told me that they'd never been taught a particular rule or learned how to write in an academic style. They appreciated my ability to explain concepts in a way that enabled them to improve the quality of their writing. This blog is a way of helping writers to understand those same concepts. I hope that you will find it helpful.
