Why Aren't You Writing?: Research, Real Talk, Strategies, & Shenanigans describes research on how bright and otherwise fairly normal people lose their minds when it comes to writing, and then shows the reader how to stop being one of those people. Author Sharon Zumbrunn designed this brief text for new academics and graduate students so they can understand the psychological hang-ups that can get in the way of writing productivity.
Sharon Zumbrunn is an independent coach, as well as an associate professor of educational psychology and the co-director of the Motivation in Context Research Lab at Virginia Commonwealth University. As a feelings-and-learning-ologist, she spends a whole lot of time thinking about and studying writing motivation and self-regulation. She has published several research articles on the writing context, writing self-efficacy, writing attitudes, perceptions of feedback, and writing strategies. Importantly, she self-identifies as a struggling writer . . . depending on the day. She currently resides with her husband, two kids, charming-but-annoying dog, and hordes of woodland creatures in Charlottesville, Virginia.
