<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Dear Reader Future Author! Welcome! We are confident that you are opening this book because, like us, you have a hard time containing your excitement for writing. We pity people who fail to experience the exhilaration that comes with seeing a document emerge from a blank white screen. Some of us have our raison d'?tat in writing. Sometimes your friends, colleagues, and loved ones may say things like, ?better you than me!? or, ?I am so glad that I will never ever have to write a paper again? when you tell them about the work you do. Just know that they are jealous that it is not them? OK that was fun, so much for the ?rah rah? of the introduction - and now back to reality. Before you go any further, we want you to know that we understand if the very thought of writing conjures negative feelings of anxiety, anger, guilt or self-loathing. Maybe you made the decision a long time ago that you do not write well, and that you would rather have a root canal while staring at the sun than write a paper. We, the authors, your friendly colleagues in the scholarly world met at a scientific conference ? in the hotel bar. We were lamenting the topic of scholarly writing, and the different methods we used to be productive authors. We discussed the similar struggles we experienced with writing. In addition to finding a lot of common ground, we shared approaches we used to be more effective and productive authors. We agreed that we learned many of these tips, tricks, and resources through trial and error or informal sharing with our colleagues. After another round of ?inspiration? we decided the world needed a book designed for nurses who are pursuing a graduate degree or took a job in academia. Thus, our project to write this book came to life"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>This book will make you a more effective and prolific author of scholarship</em></strong></p><p><em>Pain-Free Writing for Nurses</em> is an enjoyable but effective primer on writing and will improve your scholarly contributions to the nursing literature.</p><p>The tips provided in this book will improve your writing, increase your output, and help you address the stress involved in creating meaningful, professional content.</p><p><strong>This concise, practical text provides: </strong></p><ul><li>Strategies to deal with the anxiety and procrastination associated with writing</li><li>Rationales for writing in today's academic and professional nursing environment</li><li>Basic structures for scholarly writing</li><li>How to find a topic</li><li>How to develop and use a manuscript outline to save time</li><li>Strategies to increase readership of your work</li><li>How to deal with feedback, criticism, and critique</li><li>Helpful examples of various scholarly documents, including: </li><li>DNP and other scholarly projects</li><li>Abstracts</li><li>Data-based and non-data-based scholarly manuscripts</li><li>Research proposals</li><li>Academic assignments and job postings</li><li>Job application and recommendation letters, professional writing, and more</li></ul><p>The authors share personal stories and tips learned through years of professional and academic writing.</p><p><strong>Writing Tip</strong></p><p>The primary purpose of scholarly writing is to communicate new knowledge.
