Example text
Many academic writers or academics who want to write say that one of the things that they dislike is this feeling of being somehow constrained in what they are trying to say. This is either because they feel they have something to say but don’t possess the language to articulate it properly, or because the conventions of their academic discipline forbid them from writing freely, without constraint, in their own words. The issue of voice is articulated largely in two ways: not having an adequately articulate academic voice; or having a voice that is strangled and distorted by the requirements associated with the genres of one’s discipline.
Before reading the next section, briefly write down anything you can think of that you like about academic writing – include anything you feel and think about the writing process and consider any recent experiences you have had with writing. Once you have done this, write another list. This time focus on the things you dislike about the writing process. Use these lists of likes and dislikes to reflect on how you might further develop your own writing strategy and to compare your insights with those outlined below.
When the conditions feel right for them, and when writers step forward and start to advance, ink really does come flowing from pens, keyboards tap furiously and feverishly, people forget about what time it is, lose themselves in their writing and are often amazed to discover that hours have passed since they last lifted their head from their tasks. Once people start to write freely in this way, it often seems like there’s no stopping them. After many of the freewriting sessions that we have run, academic writers report how surprised they were to discover that they had so much to say.
