I love this review of mybook.to/ScienceGuide !

take a look at my book, Jacquelyn:) mybook.to/ScienceGuide A Pocket Guide to Scientific Writing and Publishing It is a simple book with an ambitious goal: to make scientific writing and publishing more accessible to all!

"Writing isn’t a gift—it’s a skill.” In my book, ecologist Mariano A. Rodriguez-Cabal (EIC @biolinvasions.bsky.social ) shows why writing early/often sharpens your thinking and your science. Great text! mybook.to/ScienceGuide #SciWriting #ECR

This is a helpful guide for students new to the publishing game. A step-by-step guide to getting your manuscript across the finish line, from start to finish. I appreciate how it doesn't assume hidden curriculum and is informed by the author's experience with English not being his first language.

Bought a copy and read already half if it. I enjoyed every word so far. Very helpful for my own learning and teaching! Thanks!

Practical tools: ✦ Write as if to a smart colleague outside your field. ✦ Reverse outline your draft—if paragraph points don’t flow, fix them. ✦ Focus on your core message, not on sounding fancy.

Too many early-career researchers think they must sound “academic” Result: jargon, passive voice, long sentences. Science is already hard—don’t make your reader fight your writing.

You don’t need perfect English or “great writer” skills. You need clarity, honesty, and persistence. Writing is a craft—you get better with practice Read Claudia Ratti’s full essay in A Pocket Guide to Scientific Writing and Publishing 👉https://mybook.to/ScienceGuide

Clarity ≠ dumbing down. It means being generous to your reader: plain, well-structured writing gives your work the best chance to be understood, appreciated, and cited.

“Clarity is kindness.” – Physicist @claudiaratti.bsky.social in A Pocket Guide to Scientific Writing and Publishing. Here are her top tips for clearer, kinder scientific writing 🧵👇

While I was waiting for my nephews to take photos with the dinosaur exhibits at the Natural History Museum London, I flicked through @martin-nunez.bsky.social book on scientific never late for some good advice on scientific writing even if you feel like a dinosaur!

Best present for the students in the lab❤️ A Pocket Guide to Scientific Writing and Publishing was written for them!

“Other books teach you how to write beautiful sentences and paragraphs; Nunez tells you how to get your imperfect writing submitted and published.”

Pro tip for writers: Read your text out loud when you're done with your paper. you'll catch lots of errors. Even better (updated 2025!): Use your computer 🖥️ to read it to you, and you sit and take notes. You'll catch even more🔥
