The Thesis Whisperer: Dissertation Writing Insights, Tips, and Humor
This great blog is filled with short articles (“PhD students have to do a lot of reading so no posts will be longer than 1000 words”) written by PhD students for PhD students. The blog is edited by Dr. Inger Mewburn, director of research training at the Australian National University, and it is open to posts about the writing process, the struggles of being a PhD student, and more. This is a blog where a PhD student working on a dissertation can take a short break by reading an encouraging article written by students undergoing similar challenges. This blog also provides a list of many other PhD student blogs, which you can peruse here.

Although GradHacker recently moved to Inside Higher Ed (also a great website), it remains one of the best places to go for advice, tips, and discussion among fellow graduate students. Its collaborative blog is a great place for graduate students to share “stories, tips, and challenges” with each other. Like The Thesis Whisperer, this is a place that a graduate student can publish blog posts as well as read them.
