Writing a paper or a dissertation is for many scientists a real pain in the neck. This week, I talk with Martha Boeglin from Scriptoria about what makes writing so difficult.
We share what it was like for us to write our Ph.D. theses. We also talk about perfectionism, writing processes, fear of failure, negativity bias, delusions of grandeur, and describe the methods that have helped us and the scientists we work with overcome writing blocks. I hope you’ll enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
