By: Dr. Vernetta K. Williams, Vernetta Mosley

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Too many students enter graduate school unprepared to write at the level expected of them, so they become stressed and lose confidence in their ability to write well. While graduate school writing requirements are daunting, writing is a skill that can and must be mastered. However, students first must embrace their identity as scholarly writers then work to improve their writing abilities. I Am Not a Writer...is a resource that provides foundational information, skills and techniques for meeting faculty writing expectations, navigating graduate school pressures, earning advanced degrees and publish in scholarly arenas. In this book, Dr. Williams (Mosley) provides an inside perspective by explaining what students need to know, inside and outside of the classroom, to succeed as emerging scholars. This practical writing guide is layered with strategies, scholarly writing examples and advice that mentor students into how to strategically approach any type of writing assignment. Dr. Williams designed this writing resource to equip students across disciplines with the information needed to develop as scholars who can articulate their research ideas critically, clearly and coherently.
