In this episode, Nilüfer talks with Kristen Roupenian about writing a dissertation without fear and without silencing your voice. Everyone who pursues a Ph.D. knows the challenges that come with writing, but Kristen offers a refreshing take on the process. She reminds all of us that instead of writing to the imagined hostile audience, we should picture ourselves writing to someone who is willing to meet us halfway. Hearing this interview gave me a feeling of relief; I wish someone would have given me this advice years ago.  She also taught us that if you find the writing process excruciating, then perhaps you can find another way, a more enjoyable way to write. If you are working on a dissertation, or any form of writing, you don't want to miss this interview!
