Making Time to Write - How to Resist the Patriarchy and Take Control of Your Academic Career Through Writing (Paperback)

Publishing is the currency of academia. But if publishing is so important, why is it so hard to find time to write? Making Time to Write exposes how women's experiences with writing in their careers are mired in the racist, ableist, patriarchal culture of academia that was built to exclude them. Building on her experience navigating the academy to become a tenured, full professor, and her work as a writing and career coach for hundreds of academic womxn, Cathy Mazak guides readers through the work of finding and honoring writing time. In the process, readers learn to build their careers around their writing practice instead of letting writing occupy the edges. From mindset work to creating a relationship-based writing system, Making Time to Write shatters the myths around writing every day (you don't have to), accountability (it's paternalistic), and motivation (it blames the victim). More than just a how-to guide, Making Time To Write is a manifesto on the feminizing of academic culture through reshaping women's writing practices.
