Good writing skills and habits are critical for scholarly success.
Every article is a story, and employing the techniques of effective
storytelling enhances scholars' abilities to share their insights
and ideas, increasing the impact of their research. This book draws
on the tools and techniques of storytelling employed in fiction and
non-fiction writing to help academic writers enhance the clarity,
presentation, and flow of their scholarly work. Timothy Pollock
describes the structure, techniques and tools of storytelling, and
shows the reader how to apply them in writing the Introduction,
Theory and Hypotheses, Methods and Results, and Discussion sections
of an article. He also describes how these sections differ for
qualitative and theory papers, and addresses how to manage the
writing, coauthoring and review processes. In addition, he explains
how to use storytelling when writing grant proposals, research
statements and cover letters. This book is an invaluable tool for
academics at all levels across the business and social science
disciplines. 'If you want your scholarly work to be read, admired,
and remembered, you should dive into this book. Tim Pollock has
done us an immense service. By integrating classical concepts from
the narrative and dramatic arts, along with numerous juicy examples
from the world of academic writing, Pollock provides us a fun,
valuable story about storytelling.' - Donald C. Hambrick, The
Pennsylvania State University, US
