Dr. King has teamed up with Textbook and Academic Authors  (www.TAAonline.net) to provide faculty writing workshops in USA colleges and universities.

Having been to Rochester Institute of Technology and Florida Gulf Coast University in 2017, she heads towards the West again to Texas Women’s University in March 2018.

At TWU , Dr. King will be facilitating an advanced workshop entitled,  “Discovering How to Deliver What Editors and Publishers Need: Demystifying the Academic Writing and Publishing Process.”

In this session, she pulls back the curtain on the sometimes mystifying process of publishing. Dr. King provides a practical, dynamic, and interactive workshop focused on improving faculty writing and publication rates.

“Kathy” is uniquely qualified to reveal the key strategies needed due to her 15+ years as a journal and book editor, faculty coach, faculty development expert, and professor of doctoral students. This revelation-packed workshop not only includes specific insights, strategies, and approaches, but also guides participants to address their productivity needs with new understanding and goals.

Grant Supports Faculty Writing Workshops

Grant Supports Faculty Writing Workshops

Textbook and Academic Authors Association has funded several of Dr. King’s faculty writing and publishing workshops through a special grant. Recent workshops have included Florida Gulfcoast University, Fort Meyers, FL, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, NV, and others.

Popular title: Advance Your Academic Writing Skills and Publishing Record: Tips, Tricks and the Secret Sauce 

These 3 hour workshops are specifically crafted to guide faculty in overcoming the challenges they face and utilize King’s well-honed strategies for publishing success.

The Textbook & Academic Authors Association (TAA) provides professional development resources, events, and networking opportunities for textbook authors and authors of scholarly journal articles and books. Established in 1987 by math author Mike Keedy, TAA is the only national, nonprofit membership association dedicated solely to assisting textbook and academic authors. TAA’s name was changed from “Text and Academic Authors Association” to “Textbook & Academic Authors Association” in 2016 to offer a clearer identity for TAA in light of the new meaning of “texting” on smart devices today.

TAA offers a wide array of resources and benefits to help you navigate your path to writing success. These benefits include publication grants, webinars, a monthly print newsletter, and a variety of networking opportunities available through CONNECT, TAA’s online member community.
