My aim in publishing this Short Guide is to help you generate new writing projects, keep your writing projects moving forward, and ensure that your writing process results in publications.A Short Guide to the Scholarly Writing Process focuses on writing as a process, from your initial curiosity about a topic or question, through the development of arguments, the identification of potential readers, the specification of a product, and the refinement of your writing for publication in a specific form. Advice about each stage of the process is accompanied by writing prompts to help you apply that advice in your own particular circumstances.I suggest reading through the Guide once to get a sense of how the whole thing fits together.

Depending on where you are stuck, it might even be appropriate to write your answers in your project document.Keep this guide close by and refer to it whenever you need to.
