Expert writing advice from the editor of the Boston Globe best-seller, The Writer's Home Companion

Dissertation writers need strong, practical advice, as well as someone to assure them that their struggles aren't unique. Joan Bolker, midwife to more than one hundred dissertations and co-founder of the Harvard Writing Center, offers invaluable suggestions for the graduate-student writer. Using positive reinforcement, she begins by reminding thesis writers that being able to devote themselves to a project that truly interests them can be a pleasurable adventure. She encourages them to pay close attention to their writing method in order to discover their individual work strategies that promote productivity; to stop feeling fearful that they may disappoint their advisors or family members; and to tailor their theses to their own writing style and personality needs. Using field-tested strategies she assists the student through the entire thesis-writing process, offering advice on choosing a topic and an advisor, on disciplining one's self to work at least fifteen minutes each day; setting short-term deadlines, on revising and defing the thesis, and on life and publication after the dissertation. Bolker makes writing the dissertation an enjoyable challenge.

Simple, Durable, and a Great Pantry Staple
I bought these because they were inexpensive, and they turned out to be exactly what I expected in a good way. They’re durable, have the size and softness of a standard everyday napkin, and the absorbency is solid for normal meals and spills. The pack is a good size—it fits easily in my pantry but still holds a lot of napkins, so it lasts a long time before needing to restock. If you’re just looking for simple, reliable napkins at a great price, these are a really good value.

Good Value Napkins for Everyday Use
These napkins are a good everyday option. The size is large, they’re affordable, and the quality is good for the price. I like that they have a textured surface, which makes them more useful than plain napkins. They are a bit thin, so I didn’t give 5 stars, but for daily meals and regular use, they work great. Overall, a solid and budget-friendly product.

Soft and convenient, but slightly thin
I bought these disposable napkins for family dinners and small gatherings, and overall they’ve been very useful. They’re soft enough to feel comfortable while still absorbing spills and messes fairly well. I also like that the size is practical for everyday meals and snacks, and the stack fits neatly on the table without taking up much space. The napkins separate easily too, which is convenient when guests are around. However, they are a little thinner than I expected, so sometimes I end up using two for bigger spills. Still, they work well for regular use and are a convenient option to keep around the kitchen and dining area.
