′This excellent book justifies its titleIt takes the aspirant writer from their research ideas and early writing (the authors suggest this should be experimental) to the production of the final edited text. Beautifully written, by authors who care, it is an invaluable resource for Doctoral students and newer writers and speaks to everyone who values good academic writing.′
′A fun and inspirational sweep through territory not always considered within the parameters of academic writing. The three phase frame of writing for self, redrafting for the reader and editing is generative and functional. This text is enormously accessible with its author dialogues, fictional characters, anecdotes, scholarly approach and valuable reading and writing activities. ′ -- Claire Aitchison
′The conversation that is Bolton and Rowland′s text reminds the reader and writer alike of the necessary blend of persistence and joy that moves us along the writing continuum of procrastination to inspiration. Their honest accounts of their own writing journeys, and their shared experiences of working with other writers at all levels, are pragmatic, informative, reassuring and engaging.′
-- Dr. Alison Farrell

The key word in the title – and what sets it apart from its rivals – is the word ‘inspirational’.
