Although we’re into the exam period, there are still a fair number of students–and, admittedly, a fair number of those of us who work with students–who have writing projects that need to be finished. The other day, a friend who had been a graduate student at the same time as I was, and with whom I spent many hours complaining about the great ideas that, well, just weren’t getting written, sent me a link to a tool that encourages those of us who sometimes are a bit “challenged” when it comes to having the inner motivation to write. In all honesty, I’m a bit afraid to try it, but it might be just the tool to help you get that late essay finished or the first chapter of your dissertation started: Dr. Wicked’s Writing Lab
