It took me years to figure out how to write happily and productively as a scholar. To help my colleagues with their own academic writing struggles, I've written a book, developed a faculty writing program, and am now offering presentations, workshops, and consultations on academic writing issues.

​

Check out my academic writing advice columns in Vitae and my book Write No Matter What: Advice for Academics (University of Chicago Press 2017), which details ways to enhance writing productivity, overcome writing myths, maintain writing momentum, and create on-campus academic writing support.

​

As a media studies professor, I have written books and articles about our beliefs about media influence; the commercialization of country music; the social role of the arts; and fans and fandom.

 

My public scholarship deals with fame, arts advocacy, and antidepressants, and I continue to write essays on media and modern life,.
