Description
Writing an academic book is a daunting task. Where to start? This workbook.

So, you've written a dissertation. Congratulations! But how do you turn it into a book? Even if you know what to do when revising your dissertation, do you know how to do those things? This workbook by Katelyn E. Knox and Allison Van Deventer, creators of the successful online Dissertation-to-Book Boot Camp, offers a series of manageable, concrete steps with exercises to help you revise your academic manuscript into publishable book form.

The Dissertation-to-Book Workbook uses targeted exercises and prompts to take the guesswork out of writing a book. You'll clarify your book's core priorities, pinpoint your organizing principle, polish your narrative arc, evaluate your evidence, and much more. Using what this workbook calls "book questions and chapter answers," you'll figure out how to thread your book's main ideas through its chapters. Then, you'll assemble an argument, and finally, you'll draft any remaining material and revise the manuscript. And most important, by the time you complete the workbook, you'll have confidence that your book works as a book--that it's a cohesive, focused manuscript that tells the story you want to tell.

Indispensible to anyone with an academic manuscript in progress, the prompts, examples, checklists, and activities will give you confidence about all aspects of your project--that it is structurally sound, coherent, free of the hallmarks of "dissertationese," and ready for submission to an academic publisher.
