Scholarly Publication Trajectories of Early-career Scholars

This edited book addresses the complex topic of writing for scholarly publication by early-career scholars. Drawing on self-study and auto-ethnographic perspectives, a group of international early-career researchers share their personal histories, narratives and first-hand accounts of their scholarly publication practices. The book helps paint a richer and more nuanced picture of the experiences, success stories, failures, and challenges that frame and shape academic trajectories of both Anglophone and English as an additional language (EAL) scholars in writing for publication. This book will be of particular interest to scholars of Applied Linguistics, English for academic purposes (EAP), and second language writing, but it will also be of use to other early-career scholars embarking on their first attempts at writing for publication.

Looks at the scholarly publication practices of early-career researchers Takes an auto-ethnographic approach to gain emic and first-hand perspectives Brings together junior researchers from a range of international linguistic and socio-cultural backgrounds
