You’ve done the research. You have results. But somewhere between your findings and your writing, the argument gets lost — and reviewers notice.

A weak or missing core argument is one of the top reasons papers get rejected or sent back for major revisions. It’s not about your data. It’s about the claim you make after answering your research question — the clear, defensible position that tells readers exactly what your paper contributes.

This workshop is where you develop that argument. Live. In one hour. Done.

What you'll get:

A guided, hands-on process to identify and write your core argument

From Question to Claim — a practical one-page framework you keep forever

Live Q&A to answer all your questions

This workshop will be recorded and available for you to watch the replay in case you can't attend.

Session 1

Session 2

This workshop is for you if...

You’re a PhD student, early-career researcher, non-tenure track faculty member, or independent researcher who wants to publish in an English-language journal in the social or environmental sciences — and you’re tired of getting stuck before you even start writing.

This workshop is especially welcoming to non-native English speakers. Clear argumentation is a skill, not a language issue, and we’ll work on it together.

About your host

Hello! I'm Jessica and I'm a teacher, writer, and social scientist who loves walking around the city with my camera. After two decades on the academic track working on post-graduate degrees then slogging along the coveted tenure-track at a highly intense, high-ranking university, I realized I was climbing the wrong mountain. After 12 years in Asia (India & Singapore), I'm back in the US. Now I help others along their academic path with one of the biggest hurdles: getting published. I truly believe we all have something to contribute to our global knowledge and I am passionate about helping you get your voice published.
