Resumo

Does writing always have to be this deadening?You might be one of the lucky 1%: you love writing up, you gain a new sense of meaning from it, and you can imagine doing nothing else for the rest of your life.Or you may be among the vast majority: you narrow your eyes suspiciously when anyone asks you how the PhD is going, and later when you find you have to carry on writing articles, you promise yourself twenty Twix bars for every page you manage to hammer out.It is not uncommon for PhD students-and established academics as well-to feel somewhat dejected while writing.Yet it is often surprisingly difficult to untangle the various pressures, anxieties and hopes that create this situation.
