Finding Your Academic Voice

As researchers, we want our voice to be heard in our writing yet we often worry about whether it is the 'right' voice. This workshop will clarify what voice is in academic writing and help you understand the relationship that voice creates between writer and reader. Katie shows how you can choose your own academic voice and helps you make it sing in a sustained and compelling way throughout your work and particularly when bringing in other experts' voices. Katie's workshop alternates close guidance on elements of academic voice with opportunities for guided tasks in which you find and free up your academic voice.
