Really great to see Max from the PhD People on here @max-thephdpeople.bsky.social
Max is one of the main reasons why my PhD is on track due to daily writing sessions, mentoring and expert seminars. #PhDChat #PhDLife
Looking for reviews of recent books on architecture, landscapes & cities?
Every season, we publish “Bookshelf,” a roundup of brief reviews of a dozen books, selected for their timeliness and import to academics, practitioners, and the public, and reviewed by critics in the field.
Read our latest:
I’ve been with them since January and I wouldn’t have written half as much without them. The daily programme isn’t advertised at the moment - it’s by referral only until later in the year. It costs £30 per month and you get 1.5 hours per day writing group and 1 seminar per month
Hi Lucy - I do daily writing sessions online with a company called PhDPeople. Most of us are working remotely and find the daily interaction helps with motivation and feeling connected. Let me know if you’d like more details
My copy arrived this morning 🥳
My first subscription book arrived today. Beautiful book and well packaged. Also the feel good factor of supporting an independent shop instead of Amazon 😎 @bertsbooks.bsky.social
I’ve been meaning to do this… I’ll take a look at the different subscriptions
Thanks I didn’t know about this app

Clotted cream on ice cream is delicious
Jam first! You are now an honorary Cornishman
If you're starting to think about your viva, a long while ago now Old Twitter offered me lots of advice and suggestions. Here's a google doc that summarised a lot of the different Qs that were sent to me, just in case anyone else might find it helpful #phdchat docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Great news! I don't think there has been any work which has superceded what iGov achieved. It's a fabulous resource.
Great to see the IGov website has been reinstated. It’s a fabulous resource for energy regulation, networks, energy transition etc. Particularly insightful on how everything fits together and needs to be considered holistically rather than silo mentality
Thank you Hema. This is where I’m at - writing my thesis while caring for my mum with blood cancer #MDS - thankfully my supervisors are very supportive and allow for the interruptions to study and the times where it’s impossible to think clearly.
Also after reading your bio, my mum has MDS, and the amount of doomscrolling I’ve done on MDS over the past few months is ridiculous - but I can’t stop endlessly searching for answers no one can give me
So to use my own experience - I’ve been a carer for my mum for 18 years, 10 of them live-in. A researcher may know everything that’s written about carers, including interviewing carers, and can write in-depth about carers lives, but they cannot truly know what 18 years of caring does to someone
Happy birthday Mark 🥳🥳
The album is called ‘Call for winter II’. I haven’t identified a favourite track as yet but it’s very reminiscent of a Nordic winter - even if we are in Cornwall 😃
I hadn’t heard of Daniel Herskedal before I saw this post but I’ve had the album on repeat all day #tuba #brass

Any Powervault P3 battery owners out there?
I've had a unut for a few years and it has caused me no end of trouble and is currently broken again.
Powervault say they are very reliable and I want to check if that is the universal user experience?
Tuba mum here. I hope the brass section are the wildest musicians in the orchestra but also the best people. They never get enough credit for what they do 😅
