Looking forward to this tonight!

Starting @ 7pm! 'Performing Research Event. This month the theme is Poetry in Research! We're thrilled to welcome @SimoneEringfeld, @keimiller, @MrBreis, @hilarycremin, @TatianaChemi, Dr Helen Johnson, Shelley A. Bruce and Co-hosts @PamBurnard and @CarolineLanskey #poetry
Last week I interviewed my 20th participant for my PhD research. The fact that 20 people have chosen to give up their time to speak with me blows my mind. Without them I would have no research, I’m so appreciative of every single person!

After a really motivating talk about writing and well-being at the #technecongress I think I’ll be adding a 10min free writing session to the start of each day before working on my PhD! @TECHNEDTP
