@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:30:19) - It's 7:30pm so time for #phdchat Welcome everyone! Tonight's topic is 'Establishing your own voice in your thesis' #phd#highered #academia (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:32:01) - I guess we should start by chatting about what we mean by establishing our own voices in our thesis? #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:33:15) - @EmmaBurnettx hi , im new , 2 moths from submission - better late than never #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:35:04) - @DDbaldie Hi Debbie, Welcome to #phdchat Even with submission just around the corner, sure you'll benefit lots. A few in the same position (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:35:21) - @DDbaldie welcome - two months from submission - well done - does this mean you've found your voice? #phdchat (original tweet)

@JaneDavis13 (2013-10-30 19:35:26) - @EmmaBurnettx I would say its getting your perspectives across and demonstrating criticality #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:36:03) - Voice in thesis, for me, is tied to confidence. It's about believing in what you're saying & knowing that it's worth saying #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:36:30) - @JaneDavis13 Fab - thanks Jane :) Having just completed (#jealous) was finding your voice an easy thing for you to establish? #phdchat (original tweet)

@kesloane (2013-10-30 19:36:52) - I'm through majority of lit review so it's about time to reclaim / rediscover my own voice. ;) #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:37:38) - looking forward to tonight's topic - it's something I've struggled with. It even appears in my first year write up. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:37:41) - @DDbaldie Being so close to submission Debbie - have you had/are you having any challenges finding your own voice? #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:37:55) - Hello, new to #phdchat, doc student at Univ of Nev, Las Vegas - beginning 3rd yr. (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:37:59) - @_erica_lewis Think I'm starting to -its useful to compare my key discussion poits with work of others and detailing new insights #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:38:36) - @_erica_lewis How did you over come these stuggles Erica? #phdchat (original tweet)

@JaneDavis13 (2013-10-30 19:38:41) - @EmmaBurnettx I think role as a senior manager in college meant I had confidence in my own views. Getting really into lit helped 2 #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:39:26) - @clarkmusings Welcome Cynthia. Great to have you hear. Everyone is really supportive and have lots of advice! #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:39:53) - @debbie_mcvitty I'm guessing you might be busy tonight - but #phdchat just started! (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:40:04) - @EmmaBurnettx Thanks, I definitely need as much as you have to offer! #phdchat. Hope to contribute in the future. (original tweet)

@SMH_Historians (2013-10-30 19:40:14) - For other Society of #Military #History Announcements, see - http://t.co/4Dm88Ox1G1 #MilitaryHistory #Academic#Twitterstorians #PhdChat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:40:57) - @JaneDavis13 I think that's a struggle with folks not being in such a senior position - not having the confidence in views #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:41:57) - The @thesiswhisperer says we rarely say what we think directly,we imply it with verbs" http://t.co/JzQCGAFmzV Should we do it less? #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:42:11) - @EmmaBurnettx @_erica_lewis talking with as many as people as possible to share and test your initial thoughts is also helpful #phdchat (original tweet)

@SMH_Historians (2013-10-30 19:42:30) - The @WestPoint_USMA Summer Sem. in #Military #History, 9-24 Jun 2014 - http://t.co/iRj2ewxROJ #PhdChat#Twitterstorians #Academic #MilHist (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:42:41) - @EmmaBurnettx Just started working on comps, will have that part completed next April/May. #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 19:43:13) - Getting 2 grips with data in data analysis is helping me 2 feel stronger - something original 2 say when it comes 2 writing up #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:43:31) - @DDbaldie @_erica_lewis I agree - this is critical as it challenges your assumptions/beliefs and develops inner confidence #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:43:49) - @EmmaBurnettx I really don't know I have. Sometimes I find it, then it slips away again. It's odd, I used to have a clear voice. #phdchat (original tweet)

@JaneDavis13 (2013-10-30 19:44:04) - @EmmaBurnettx I agree. It could really be a challenge! However it's confidence that is key regardless of how it's attained. #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:44:07) - @EmmaBurnettx @thesiswhisperer i think we should say what we think more but may have to be tentative dependant on methodology used #phdchat (original tweet)

@theinsightedge (2013-10-30 19:44:10) - @gtombs agree. + confidence in phd 4 me has been about the contribution, nailing that. Takes a while and is post data collection. #phdchat (original tweet)

@JaneDavis13 (2013-10-30 19:44:45) - @EmmaBurnettx ... Or confidence plus a real understanding of the literature ... And a feeling there is more to find. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:44:51) - @clarkmusings what's comps? #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:45:00) - @theinsightedge yep, agreed. Has also been hard to balance finding my voice with doing justice to participants' voices #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:45:22) - @EmmaBurnettx We have to take comprehensive exams before we can begin our disseration. #phdchat (original tweet)

@ThomsonPat (2013-10-30 19:45:35) - Citing citations can cause problems for you and others http://t.co/WzmyZDRD7i #acwri #phdchat #gradchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:45:38) - @Janedavis13 did you write your Phd in your professional field? #phdchat (original tweet)

@kesloane (2013-10-30 19:45:43) - @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat I met with my supervisor recently about this - being a direct, declarative writing rather than implying something. (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:46:15) - @_erica_lewis I sometimes find external pressures can knock my #phd confidence. Something else happens, it has a knock on effect #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:46:51) - @DDbaldie I like that as a suggestion. Are you part of a large program? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:47:01) - @clarkmusings Ahhh, I see. Good luck with those! :) #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:47:52) - @EmmaBurnettx Thanks, fortunately they help you focus on your disseration topic. Not completely useless, lol. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:48:06) - @theinsightedge @gtombs definitely agree. It's knowing the 'so what' question everyone asks - being able to articulate it clearly #phdchat (original tweet)

@kesloane (2013-10-30 19:48:16) - @clarkmusings @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat good luck! Try to maker productive. I tailored mine for lit review! (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 19:48:22) - @clarkmusings @EmmaBurnettx Cynthia What are the exams on? #phdchat (original tweet)

@JaneDavis13 (2013-10-30 19:48:41) - @_erica_lewis was associated with it, yes. The theory was well outside my own previous understanding. Researching identity #amazing #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:49:22) - Those who blog - does this help establish your own voice in your thesis. Nice blog here by @ianrobsonshttp://t.co/Ti37IiHzXe #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:49:38) - @LBA_OX12 maybe I just haven't gone far enough. maybe I'll find my voice as I become more sure of my ground & have my own findings #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:49:47) - @LBA_OX12 @EmmaBurnettx Basically first three chapters of proposed disseration. Oral exam after writing on those for 1 month. #phdchat (original tweet)

@Kalipizzaro (2013-10-30 19:50:25) - @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat dayong hi but been out a retirement so not the best time to contribute but hope you had a good chat 😳😉 (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:50:35) - @kesloane so having that confidence to commit #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:51:13) - @_erica_lewis no, but have many academic contacts through other research work. I use anyoe that will listen! lay views also helpful #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 19:51:19) - @LBA_OX12 @EmmaBurnettx Other US universities include exam on statistical analysis and theoretical philosophy/methodology. #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 19:51:29) - @_erica_lewis I don't think I've found my voice - just that data analysis gives me something 2 get hold of, 2 write about...... #phdchat (original tweet)

@SaricJo (2013-10-30 19:51:40) - I feel I have lost the aim of my research project and I have just begun. I know it's here somewhere.... If you see it, let me know #phdchat (original tweet)

@kesloane (2013-10-30 19:52:05) - @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat yes, taking a firm position, being brave. ;) (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:52:15) - What strategies have other #phd-ers used to find their voice in their thesis? Is it something that 'just happens'? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:52:52) - @Kalipizzaro ha ha - great to see you pop in! Hope you had a lovely time :) #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:53:23) - @DDbaldie interesting - ok there are possibilities there & in fact will arise as my research progresses #phdchat (original tweet)

@ruthmassierose (2013-10-30 19:53:33) - I've never quite understood what is meant by 'academic voice' @_erica_lewis #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:53:38) - @EmmaBurnettx @theinsightedge Absolutely! I think it's something that develops over time. Am 4th year & only just getting there #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:54:02) - @DDbaldie @_erica_lewis We have excellent post grad research forum. Regular presentations/seminars. Mandatory to present our work #phdchat (original tweet)

@theinsightedge (2013-10-30 19:54:50) - @ruthmassierose @_erica_lewis for me see it simply. Voice Sounds like you. Academic - theoretically defendable #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:55:03) - @Kalipizzaro brilliant! Hope with a beer in hand (or something tasty in a flask!) lol ;) #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 19:56:00) - @gtombs reading intros and dicussion sections of published work helping me #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:56:33) - MT @DDbaldie: focused reading of discussions and intros of published work in your research area helped me (to find voice in thesis) #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:56:47) - @gtombs @theinsightedge same - I can see it happening now. Agree, that it will come when your are ready #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 19:57:50) - @SaricJo my supervisor has good advice on this: swirl out & back, the trick is to find the centre. What originally inspired you? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:58:34) - @theinsightedge @ianrobsons Agree - I was very apprehensive when I started blogging, but so glad I did. Has helped in so many ways #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 19:58:34) - @DDbaldie that's helpful - thanks! Great way to get examples of other pieces of writing where voice (hopefully) established #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 19:59:59) - @gtombs used to think it was just about choosing to write in the first person rather than the third ~ much more complex than that #phdchat (original tweet)

@jennachiapas (2013-10-30 20:00:58) - Unfunded Ph.D.s: http://t.co/xfuig1CkW3 some of this resonates but I have resolved most thoughts of feeling unworthy#GradHacker #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:01:03) - I have a blog but seem to only be inspired to post once a month. Need to get more active. #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:01:05) - @theinsightedge @ruthmassierose agreed. maybe that's my challenge: I'm trying to add scholar to the old mix of activist/wonk #phdchat (original tweet)

@DDbaldie (2013-10-30 20:03:19) - great chat, sorry have to leave to collect daughter from work #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:03:35) - Are there any parts of thesis that are easier to establish your own voice than others or is it something that runs right through? #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:03:53) - @EmmaBurnettx agreed. I think declarative statements and first person help a lot in conveying it though. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:04:01) - @DDbaldie glad you could join us Debbie. Speak soon #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:04:07) - @clarkmusings I don't even manage that & I tend to write connected to previous work. Still looking for my Phd voice ;-) #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 20:04:14) - @EmmaBurnettx Really appreciate your blog posts - very insightful & inspiring #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:05:03) - @DDbaldie thanks for coming. Hope we'll see you again. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:05:28) - @LBA_OX12 aw thank you Linda. It helps me get some things of my chest & also helps inform chapter writing :) #phdchat (original tweet)

@theinsightedge (2013-10-30 20:05:49) - @_erica_lewis @ruthmassierose learnt recently brilliant @thesiswhisperer quoting ;-) @ThomsonPat re academic language deconstructed #phdchat (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:06:20) - Methodology and introduction @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:07:32) - @EmmaBurnettx Discussion chapter is easiest for me - data chapters hardest #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:08:39) - @theinsightedge sorry I don't quite follow that, although I do read both blogs #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:08:46) - @gtombs First time I've heard someone say that! Always here discussion the hardest. What was your secret Gemma?! #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:09:38) - Intro is hardest for me, it sets the stage and determines flow for rest of article. #phdchat (original tweet)

@AntarcticGlacie (2013-10-30 20:10:49) - Getting through the writing-up period #phdchat http://t.co/G9staFEgMU (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:12:18) - @EmmaBurnettx Exactly. This is where you say what you did and why, and position yourself in relation to the work #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:12:31) - @clarkmusings I have to admit that I do find intro's challenging - tend to leave them until the end funnily enough #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:12:46) - @EmmaBurnettx Well, it's not finished yet ;) But, for me, it's an opportunity to advocate for my participants #phdchat (original tweet)

@dbaQ8 (2013-10-30 20:12:50) - I wonder if it's harder for non-native English speaking researchers to find own voice #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 20:13:00) - @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx Yes, we're hoping to have content of data chapter as a future topic #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:13:35) - @EmmaBurnettx I worry I'd have to rewrite rest. My intros "prep" me and help me figure out how I want to present research. #phdchat (original tweet)

@theinsightedge (2013-10-30 20:13:37) - @_erica_lewis certain phrases carry weight/resonance in academic writing. @inthesiswhisperer had useful list. Not so Secret code. #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:14:07) - @EmmaBurnettx hardest thing for me is balancing my voice with ensuring participants' voices are heard - v important to me #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:14:14) - @dbaQ8 Good point. We have a number of non native English speaking PhD students at our HEI - I shall pose that question #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:15:07) - @vanillacaramel I absolutely agree - also enjoyable chapters to write #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:15:18) - @rellypops @katiedigc Likek the "new words not edits" guideline :-). #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:15:34) - @theinsightedge thanks I'll go and look for that one #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:15:42) - @gtombs Did you even go back to your participants with your data? #phdchat (original tweet)

@dbaQ8 (2013-10-30 20:15:47) - @EmmaBurnettx Great; look forward to hearing feedback #phdchat (original tweet)

@kesloane (2013-10-30 20:15:54) - @EmmaBurnettx @clarkmusings #phdchat I write intros last as well. otherwise I never get going. Lol (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:16:09) - Literature review is where I tend to lose myself in the words of others @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:16:46) - I recently did a focus group dissemination session with some participants and some not. Great strategy to help find own voice #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:16:46) - @vanillacaramel @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx Same here, difficult not to get caught up in other authors' lingo. #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:16:59) - @EmmaBurnettx yep, of course. Many want to see analyses when completed as well #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:17:41) - @kesloane @EmmaBurnettx Sounds like I may need to rethink my order. It does take a bit for me to get going. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:17:55) - @vanillacaramel @gtombs I know crucially important, but my least favourite chapters because of that :( #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:18:48) - @EmmaBurnettx @vanillacaramel I have yet to find anyone who likes the lit review, for that very reason. It's my task for#acwrimo #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:19:37) - @kesloane @clarkmusings ha ha same! I've taken a day in the past to write one silly little intro paragraph! I gave up & had wine! #phdchat (original tweet)

@skwlgrl (2013-10-30 20:20:07) - @vanillacaramel @EmmaBurnettx @clarkmusings The best #intros promise & deliver. Seems logical to write them last! #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:22:21) - @clarkmusings I see the sense in writing intros last, but I need to know what ties it all together, otherwise I really struggle #phdchat (original tweet)

@dbaQ8 (2013-10-30 20:22:48) - @vanillacaramel @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx Same here. Lit review causes me great pain #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:23:04) - @_erica_lewis @clarkmusings I write one at the beginning of each chapter & fully anticipate redrafting at the end of each chapter #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:23:10) - I like this: think about 'writing to learn' rather than 'learning to write' in order to find your voice #phdchathttp://t.co/PIxFTzIp4f (original tweet)

@ajwooff (2013-10-30 20:23:16) - Im in process of 'trying to find voice' in (2nd) draft of lit rev. It's painstaking.Diff to know when/where to add voice+narrative #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:24:01) - @dbaQ8 @vanillacaramel @gtombs so true - even when done, that horrid feeling when you know it will still need revisited again.... #phdchat (original tweet)

@ajwooff (2013-10-30 20:24:16) - @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx And I guess part of finding voice is through the choce of which participants to use/which narratives to tell #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:24:23) - @gtombs that seems good way to split the difference #phdchat (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:24:56) - @_erica_lewis True, which is why my practice now is to write the intro first, makes me think about the overall picture. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:25:15) - @_erica_lewis @gtombs I also have similar struggles with the summaries of each chapter :( #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:26:37) - @EmmaBurnettx I'd like to hear more about that - our PG board is looking for ideas #phdchat (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:26:38) - @gtombs @EmmaBurnettx It is awful. Like trudging through mud. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:26:39) - @ajwooff @gtombs with the added pressure of ensuring what you use addresses the research question(s) #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:27:28) - @vanillacaramel @EmmaBurnettx But really quite nice when you find someone who supports your argument #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:27:48) - With only a few more minutes to go, at the risk of being too corny, would be great to round up with key take-home messages :) #phdchat (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:29:18) - @clarkmusings @_erica_lewis Good to think about the intro as a proposal initially, then rewrite as the piece takes shape #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:29:22) - I guess for me, I'm reassured the challenges I've had in establishing my own voice in my thesis, & the ones that I have are normal! #phdchat (original tweet)

@gtombs (2013-10-30 20:29:59) - #phdchat take home message for me - important to keep writing - notes, blog posts, whatever. All part of finding voice in #phd (original tweet)

@clarkmusings (2013-10-30 20:30:49) - Take home for me - finding a great group of supportive people to share the experience with. #phdchat (original tweet)

@ajwooff (2013-10-30 20:31:05) - Add voice by identifying gaps, telling a story both w/in chpers and across thesis, being confident, nt trying to cover everything #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:31:30) - So at 8:30pm, that brings us to the end of tonight's #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:31:51) - Thank you to everyone who participated in #phdchat this evening & for making my first hosting session an easy & very pleasurable one! (original tweet)

@ajwooff (2013-10-30 20:31:52) - Important to think about your own conceptual framework in distilling what your voice will be. #phdchat (original tweet)

@vanillacaramel (2013-10-30 20:32:11) - Easier to find your own voice when you are writing an argument, rather than reviewing or covering material@EmmaBurnettx #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (2013-10-30 20:32:18) - @ajwooff Knowing I'll have to rewrite lit review - expecting it 2 be one of hardest parts in writing up #phdchat (original tweet)

@theinsightedge (2013-10-30 20:32:27) - @EmmaBurnettx excellent hosting. Thanks #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-10-30 20:32:51) - My take aways: i'm moving into a new field & my academic voice will come as I grapple with the literature & document findings #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (2013-10-30 20:32:52) - @theinsightedge Thank you Jeannie :) #phdchat (original tweet)

@ajwooff (2013-10-30 20:33:54) - @LBA_OX12 Yes, I'm not going to lie...it is tough. Easier if you have other chapters written though. Distilling messages difficult #phdchat (original tweet)

@thesiswhisperer (2013-10-30 20:33:54) - Controversy! Are 'bitter PhDs' online haters? MT @katrinafee @deannamascle On the Pleasure of Hatinghttp://t.co/bne0e231cm #phdchat (original tweet)
