Join Prof. David Schultz of the University of Manchester for a free 3-hour workshop on writing and publishing. You will learn the process of peer review from an experienced and interdisciplinary author, reviewer, and editor. Get behind-the-scenes insight into how to better prepare your manuscript for submission, engage with the reviewers and editor, and ensure a positive outcome for your manuscript. Delve into the concepts that all writers need to learn to write clear, concise, and understandable text.
Prof. Schultz has published 200 peer-reviewed journal articles, served as reviewer for 60 different journals, and served as editor for several journals. His award-winning book, Eloquent Science: A Practical Guide to Becoming a Better Writer, Speaker and Atmospheric Scientist (http://www.eloquentscience.com), has been translated into Chinese, and the eBook is freely available from many university libraries: http://bit.ly/EloqSci.
