We use Wendy Laura Belcher's highly acclaimed book, Writing Your Journal Article in Twelve Weeks*, as a guide to revising a draft into a submittable journal article. Similar to the Dissertation Writing Groups, we will work in solidarity alongside other peers committed to meeting ambitious goals on a shared timeline, and participate in a facilitator-led group that shares ideas and resources in various areas of the journal and article-writing and submitting process. This program is also designed as a workshop, and participants will be asked to share specific drafts of their writing: abstracts, argument statements, literature reviews, etc.
Applications for Article Writing Groups go out every August, April, and December, and the application is quite competitive. Please contact wts@iu.edu for questions or more information about the program.
*This textbook is required for group participation. Participants are responsible for obtaining a personal copy.
