Changes to Writing Up Qualitative Research (Qualitative... by Harry F. Wolcott

Drawing on his own experiences and those of other writers, Wolcott examines key problems in writing qualitative research and explores alternative ways of coping with them. He identifies the central concern as clearly focusing on the problem by ridding the mind of data. He advocates beginning one’s writing early in parallel with research rather than treating the write up as a final step. Wolcott tackles such topics as beginning to write, continuing to write, editing and getting published. Written in a lively, informal style Writing Up Qualitative Research is indispensable not only to qualitative researchers but to anyone engaged in social research for whom the link between conducting research and writing it up seems more like an obstacle than an opportunity.
