Recently I achieved the milestone of publishing 100 papers. I understand that academic writing is not everyone’s cup of tea. So how can you become a better academic writer?
Sharing a few tips in this🧵 #AcademicTwitter@OpenAcademics@PhDVoice@PhD_Genie
1. Be consistent
First and foremost, try to write something every day. This will help you to be a better writer. Remember, practice makes perfect.
2. Be coherent
Make explicit transitions between your ideas. Go from A to B and then B to C. Don't attempt to go from A to C. Your reader will be lost. Use transition words for assistance.
