In this episode of Academic Writing Amplified, Cathy sits down with returning guest Jane Jones to unpack the real differences between managing article projects and managing a book-length manuscript. Together, they explore why books require a completely different relationship to time, planning, revision, and even your own psychology as a writer. Jane shares practical wisdom about scheduling writing sessions, estimating tasks realistically, and why so many academics underestimate what book writing actually demands. They also discuss the emotional side of sustaining a project over multiple years—and why developmental editing early in the process can save you enormous pain later. Whether you're drafting your first academic book or trying to make meaningful progress this summer, this conversation will help you think differently about what book writing really takes. "You don't have three months to write—you have the number of writing sessions you can actually schedule and honor." — Jane Jones Jane's program for writing your academic book, Book Brilliance , is enrolling now!
