— Appears in: Axon : Creative Explorations , March vol. 1 no. 2 2012;
'We make judgments every day about all kinds of things. Whether wrestling with student assignments or finessing a paper for publication, the same critical principles and rational processes apply, so making judgments about paring back personal clutter should be comparatively easy—or is it? As one horsewoman found out, an exercise in defragging the horse stuff was about as conflicted and complex as it gets.' (Publication abstract)

1 Whoa! Reining in the Research Doctorate in Creative Practice Sandra Burr , 2007 single work criticism
— Appears in: TEXT : The Journal of the Australian Association of Writing Programs , October vol. 11 no. 2 2007;
Author's abstract: Faced with multiple requirements not only to establish a research question and a method of inquiry, but also to meet the complex demands of a bi-partite exegetical/creative dissertation, creative practice often presents as an unnavigable wilderness to novice PhD students. Sometimes circumstances arise causing candidates to lose their way and they become disconnected from their research as theory and practice diverge. Such difficulties may be overcome by repairing the interface between theory and practice through the development of a personal research ethos. Establishing a philosophical approach to ethical creative practice may restore candidate confidence by validating their positions as researchers. The author describes how by pausing and drawing on parallels between creative practice and creative horsemanship she was able to make sense of her own creative practice and restore a project that had threatened to wander dangerously off course.
