The context of research production in the stricto sensu postgraduate program in Brazil has called the attention of researchers and been reported in printed media that warn about the effects produced on the bodies: stress, depression and anxiety. In addition, the supremacy of quantitative research, the limitation of research deadlines and the need to publish articles implies in continuous activity in the name of high level evaluations and the justification for granting scholarships and other minimum conditions to conduct research. In this scenario where there is an author’s weakening, the relationship with writing starts to be experienced as something impossible to be carried out by researchers or as a protocol to be followed. This condition is named writing-in-debt. The word debt, in this study, will be related to a medicalization process in which a normalizing condition shapes the existent. Concerning the writing itself as a territory to face the feeling of the impractical in academic production, we present a device that involves the writing of letters by post-graduation students in Psychology. The exercise of addressed writing allows a twist of the author in the relation with the writing.
