Writing for publication. Part 4: Using evidence

Over the last four months this series has examined the process of professional publication. If you have missed some or all of the articles they are listed below, with the references to access them. If this was the radio programme’ ‘Desert Island Discs’ I would spend a few minutes telling you why I chose each piece of music and why it played a significant part in my life. If you translate the desert island discs idea to this series, then I would tell you how each of these topics has been written from my experience of over 30 years of writing articles, books or conference presentations and supporting others to do the same. Each of the articles is quite short and can easily be read in 10 minutes. If writing for publication is an ambition for you, then access the series and make time to read them. For those really busy people, let me try and summarise the essential points of each article.
