Academic writing

I write down my thoughts about writing, then ask GPT to help shape them into articles. You can also ask GPT to read these pages and summarise them for you.

My personal view is that it may be better to begin writing your first academic paper before taking too many academic writing courses. Learning while writing helps you notice the distance between your own draft and academic writing that you admire. You can then work on that distance. This may be more useful than taking courses alone, and it may leave more room for writing creativity. Everyone has a different learning style, so you do not have to follow this approach.
