You have brilliant ideas, but struggle to get them on paper.
You’re working hard, but your paper is barely moving forward.
Every time you write, a nagging voice asks, “Are you sure this is correct?”
Advice like “follow IMRaD” or “just start with an outline” feels confusing in practice.
You’re told to show how your work fits the bigger picture, but you’re not sure how.
Your supervisor gives plenty of feedback, but figuring out what they actually want feels like a guessing game.

…experience less stress and enjoy the creative thinking process?

…believe in your research and communicate with authority?

…know exactly what steps to take, so you always know you’re on the right track?

Five steps for writing your paper

📋 Step 1: Preparing a writing plan

In this step, you’ll gather everything you’ve produced so far – methods, data, literature – and discuss the direction of your paper with your supervisors (e.g. where to publish).

Outcome: A clear and agreed-upon writing plan

🔍 Step 2: Interpreting the results

You will focus on describing the results, placing them in the context of the existing literature, and addressing contradicting findings, assumptions and study limitations. This section requires a lot of thinking work, both creative and critical.

Outcome: A preliminary findings section that discusses your results & conclusions

📝 Step 3: Developing your outline

Here, you’ll align your paper with the aims and scope of your intended journal. You’ll develop a coherent narrative (the “red thread”) and prepare an outline for efficient drafting.

Outcome: A structured outline that guides your first draft

📄 Step 4: Drafting the first version

You’ll produce your first draft, focusing on generating content rather than perfecting it. You’ll tidy it enough to make it readable and get feedback.

Outcome: A complete draft ready for detailed feedback

📜 Step 5: Improving your draft

This step focuses on revising for clarity, logical flow, and cohesion. You’ll also refine language, structure, and style to make your manuscript sound convincing and academic.

Outcome: A polished and submission-ready manuscript

Submission and publication

The final module of the course shows you how to submit your paper, how to manage revisions, and what to do when your paper has been accepted for publication🥳.

Outcome: A submitted manuscript

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this course for?

This course is designed for graduate students, researchers, and academics who are writing a classic data-based IMRaD paper (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion).

I already started writing my paper, can I still join?

Yes! This course is designed with people like you in mind. Whether you want to get it right from the get go, or you’ve already started but are feeling stuck, this course is for you.

Do I need prior writing experience?

No! While some familiarity with academic writing helps, the course covers everything from structuring your paper to polishing arguments, so you’ll gain confidence and skills even if you haven’t written an entire paper or thesis before.

What does my time commitment look like?

I know how busy academic life can be, so I’ve designed the course to be focused and to the point. The workbook exercises feed directly into your manuscript, and the 1-on-1 coaching sessions plus email support help you move forward efficiently, so you won’t waste time reinventing the writing process on your own.

That said, writing a paper is still a lot of work — but you probably knew that already, otherwise you wouldn’t be here 😉.

Will this course guarantee publication?

While no course can guarantee journal acceptance, you’ll finish with a well-structured, submission-ready manuscript that meets academic standards and stands a much stronger chance of success. You’ll also get guidance in preparing submission and navigating the revisions process (and you’re always welcome to shoot me an email after you’ve finished the course to ask follow-up questions).

How is this course different from writing training at my university’s graduate school writing centre?

University workshops typically focus on specific writing skills, such as academic language or paper structure. This course, in contrast, guides you through the entire writing process from interpreting the results and developing key messages to copy-editing the final manuscript, providing personal support every step of the way.

How long does this course take?

Writing a scientific journal article typically takes about four months, though this can vary depending on your project, what you’ve already completed, and other commitments. This course includes five coaching sessions spread across these four months, plus ongoing email support. You’ll have full access to the course materials for a full year.

What if I need more time?

In our coaching sessions, we’ll proactively plan and adjust your workflow, so you’re well-positioned to finish on time. That said, life and research schedules can vary! Coaching sessions can also be paced flexibly, and optional follow-ups are available if you need extra guidance.
