Cultivate the Writer (CTW) provides services that facilitate scholarly writing proficiency, academic productivity, dissertation completion and academic career advancement.

We realize that many faculty members and graduate students struggle to write amid their professional and personal responsibilities, yet writing is central to their success. Typically, they lack the time, energy, academic preparation and motivation to write well or consistently, so the isolating task of scholarly writing becomes more cumbersome than it should be.

However, writing is a skill that can be mastered, and scholarly writing difficulties can be overcome with the proper support. Our services are designed to address the difficulties surrounding academic writing so those within higher education can thrive as productive scholars. The common writing barriers include:

Isolation; Time Constraints; Lack of Academic Preparation; Inconsistent Writing Practices; Procrastination; Red Ink Trauma; Perfectionism; Overreliance on AI; Loss of Focus/Momentum/Motivation; Lack of Mentorship; Competing Priorities; Imposter Syndrome

To combat these common problems, we provide the following services:

1. Academic Workshops and Webinars, campus based and virtually
2. Dissertation Boot Camps/Retreats, campus based and virtually
3. Non-Dissertation based Writing Retreats and Intensives
4. Academic Writing Coaching
5. Dissertation Coaching
6. Professional Editing

We look forward to cultivating the writer and scholar within you!
