The process of writing a dissertation or thesis can be incredibly isolating. You seclude yourself for days on end with nothing but books, pages on a computer screen, and your own thoughts. This isolation can be even more pronounced if are you writing your dissertation while away from your academic institution or community.



Academic blog writer Terry Brock has some very helpful thoughts on how to overcome this intense isolation (which can very often lead to unfinished projects and programs, or inferior work). Here are his main suggestions, upon which he elaborates in his article:

  1. Join a Writing Group

  2. Talk with Your Advisor… Whether You Need to or Not

  3. Get on the Phone with Everyone Else, Too

  4. Frequently Fly

I was a bit hesitant at first as there are so many companies offering this type of service online and it is difficult to know which to trust. I am so happy that I ended up choosing Thesis Editor, their standard of work and quality are exactly what you’d hope for. I had some tight deadlines and they worked with me during a very stressful time to meet those deliverables. This is high quality support and Dr. Leach is nothing short of amazing.
