Critics Review
‘Hit by chronic writers’ stuck-ness, Seonaidh McDonald researched, puzzled and wrote her way out of it, with this enormously helpful, practical and engaging result. The wit, fluidity and accessibility of Seonaidh’s writing belie her own struggles. Exploring all the many ways of being stuck, Seonaidh also delivers a diversity of tools and pathways to happy, flowing writing. A tour de force.’ – Sarah Drakopoulou Dodd, Strathclyde University, UK
‘It was a pleasure to read this book – the personal tone, the flow of the text, the engagement with a subject that I am passionate about. It has truly inspired me to explore new mindsets and techniques for writing. I will start using them right away.’ – Sara Persson, Södertörn University, Sweden
‘How to Stop Being Stuck with Your Academic Writing by Seonaidh McDonald offers practical suggestions that can be ‘dipped in’ to get past a particular problem, or used more extensively to construct a plan to develop your own writing or that of others. The book offers a good balance of structure and flexible options, so that readers will be able to find useful guidance without feeling they are being constrained into a “one size fits all” approach. Written in a warm and engaging style, the book offers something for everyone who finds themselves wrestling with academic writing.’ – Paul Hibbert, University of St. Andrews, UK
