Dora Farkas – Academic Writing Bootcamp

Description of Academic Writing Bootcamp

The Academic Writing Bootcamp is not your everyday thesis writing bootcamp.

It’s not about clearing out your weekend, taking time off from work, dropping your kids off with a sitter and binge-writing until your back hurts. The Academic Writing Bootcamp is for students with “real” everyday lives who are busy with their research, job, and families.

The Writing Accelerator Bootcamp gives you the tools and the community to write your thesis (or a publication) at any stage of writing. The premise of the Writing Accelerator Bootcamp is that you get to write your thesis on your timeline.
