Abstract

Two doctoral students and a new academic use autoethnography to reflect on their experiences as emerging scholars. Five themes are explored: developing mentor relationships, discovering and expressing one’s voice when writing, writing collaboratively, receiving and integrating constructive criticism, and using resources. Implications for adult education are also provided.
