Writing up your own work

 

“Conceptualising academic writing (and indeed all writing) as a form of patchwriting that is dialogically and intertextually constructed, allows us to move away from the paralysing concept of authorship as singular and unitary, which so often serves simply to block constructive ways of dealing with questions of knowledge production, writer development and textual ownership.”
