Turning your Thesis into a Book

Are you writing (or have you written) a thesis and wondering if there’s a book in it?

Maybe your work traverses the territory between creative writing and research? Got a book idea on the back burner, or perhaps just interested in knowing more about publishing? This event is for you.

Offered exclusively for Academic Writing Month (#ACWRIMO), this workshop provides a great opportunity to build your understanding of the processes invovled in book publishing.

You will be provided with exercises to help you develop ideas, goals and plans for your own scholarly book writing.

Graduate researchers, ECRs, and any established academics with an interest in scholarly book writing are most welcome to attend.
