Media reviews

"Rachael Cayley has distilled her expertise as an editor, professor, and blogger to share much needed insights about the realities and pleasures of writing in academe. With respect, compassion, and charm, she re-centers graduate student writing to be at the heart of the academic research enterprise. Despairing graduate writers will benefit from Cayley's shrewd academic writing advice-not too much, not too little, but just right."
– Kristina Quynn, Founding Director CSU Writes, Assistant Dean Graduate School, Colorado State University-Fort Collins

"Thriving as a Graduate Writer offers the exact advice I often share with graduate students in writing centre appointments. Reading it is as close to the experience of working with a writing coach one to one as a book can get. It is essential reading for graduate students, early career researchers and advisors."
– Nadine Fladd, University of Waterloo

"Cayley draws from her years of experience and her insights permeate every page, from the accessible tone to the guidance that avoids prescriptive rules in favor of developing rhetorical understanding. This is the book I have been waiting to recommend to graduate students."
– Linda C. Macri, University of Maryland
