I hate writing reference letters. They're simultaneously extremely important and incredibly not fun to write.

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social I don't know if this is helpful, but I use this with my students to try to get enough information to write a good letter. Feel free to adapt the list as appropriate for your discipline! Writing rec letters is awful, but I find it slightly less so if you're getting good input. https://www.carrieshanafelt.com/asking-for-a-letter-of-recommendation
