"What really changed for me during the Bootcamp wasn't just my productivity but it was also how I viewed the writing. I was much more efficient and less stuck in my head. During the boot camp I was able to complete the first drafts of three thesis chapters which honestly felt huge to me."
The PhD People are the supervisors that everyone needs but which most don't have! I genuinely believe that taking part in the writing group will be the difference between me handing my thesis in later this year and abandoning it due to being stuck and helpless. Thank you!

The fellowship, academic advice, and connection of being in this group have been a massive support in my doctoral journey. To be direct, this is not an endeavour that feels like throwing more money at your university ventures, but instead offers succour and authentic academic support from people who have been through this experience and genuinely desire to help others on this road.

"I wish I'd done this in my first PhD year…If you aren't decided just give it a go and at the very least you will have worked on your thesis for four days straight and yeah that alone is a big win."
Heather Demmon
"If you're thinking about doing one of the boot camps I'd say just go and do it. I was really skeptical - I've done two now, and the first one I thought there's no way I'm going to write the number of words that were suggested, and both times I've written more than 20,000 words. "
Angela Bartley
" I can't recommend it enough for people who are struggling as I was with certain chapters or concepts or feeling a bit stuck or paralysed. Or if you have a lack of confidence around tackling some aspects of your PhD thesis."
Luisa
"Participating in the bootcamp felt like taking part in a sports event, very intense, challenging and exhausting but incredibly rewarding and inspiring. I would definitely recommend the bootcamp to anyone looking for a productive and focused experience."
Amy Morton
"If you are in doubt about joining, go for it. You absolutely will not regret it, and it might change your life and your perspective on your writing and your PhD as it has done for me. Definitely, definitely sign up."
