Turbocharge Your Writing: Getting Your Thesis Finished
Would you like to know the secret to high output, low stress scholarly writing? In academia it is often assumed that writing comes naturally. However, an overwhelming body of research shows that there are very clear and practical strategies that can greatly increase your writing productivity.

- How we deliberately use distractions to slow down writing
- The principles of quick starting
- How to deal with destructive internal beliefs
- How to set a writing plan and stick to it
- How to set achievable goals by writing in a silo
- How to greatly increase the number of actual words you produce
