Advice for a mature student part-time PhD?
Having previously finished my studies at Masters level and after spending a number of years in industry in operational technical roles, I've started doing more research work and found myself underqualified for research positions, having not originally completed a PhD. I'm fortunate that my employer has been able to support a part-time PhD to rectify this - however, as someone coming back into University as a part-time mature student, what change of mindset from my current industrial work approach do I need to be successful in a PhD and in research work?

How can I share my research writing with others ?
I'm going to college for psychology, and one thing I've been doing on the side is writing. I already write a lot of fiction for my own fun but I also really like writing about my research on substack. I want to know how I could monetize + expand my writing I've done and continue to do on my research, and how did the first couple years of building a writing go? What mistakes did you now experts make that I could maybe avoid? I'm a good writer but a bad marketer if that makes sense, so I want to learn how to share my writing more successfully over a writing platform like substack + medium. #Spring26
