  • You ‘go to’ academic podcast

    I have been listening to Academic Writing Amplified for years! Even returning to episodes to remind myself of the valuable lessons Cathy shares with her listeners. As a graduate of several of her programs, I know her system works. Subscribe to this podcast, you won’t regret it.

  • No longer worth the time

    This has turned into just an ad for her multi-thousand dollar course. Sad, when it started out well. (Her book is still useful.)
