SUMMARY:Being a Successful Author of an Academic Monograph
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will provide an overview of best practices for 
 graduate students who will be conceptualizing\, pitching\, contracting\, 
 and then publishing a first academic monograph. The process to contract and 
 beyond will be broken down into its constituent parts and guidance will be
