Welcome to the Writing in Solidarity Collective resource list. We are a collective of academics seeking to mitigate academic gatekeeping by creating spaces for mutual aid in academic writing. Our intent is to provide helpful and judgment-free editing and advice, not to rectify any deficits, but because academic publishing can be obscure and gatekeeping replicates power structures we want to disrupt. This list is focused primarily on support for academic publishing. If you are interested in applying to graduate programs and are seeking mentorship, please visit this list run by Noopur Raval.We have also compiled a list of academic writing resources, available here. If you would like to add any resources that you have found helpful to this list, please request edit access.
