Topic
You may already have completed some research, and be wondering how exactly to write it up and publish it. Or your research may be at earlier stage of planning. This workshop will help you along the bumpy, exciting and personally and professionally (but probably not financially) rewarding road to publication. It will help you to explore possible outlets for you work, and to explore writing for different audiences. It will cast light on the sometimes obscure world of the gatekeepers to publication, the referees and the editors. There will be input on these topics. But mainly there will be support and encouragement to plan and write plan and review and edit, working with colleagues on the day.
