Monthly Writing Meet-Up (Retreat)

Are you looking for a supportive network of graduate students, who come together to connect and advance their academic writing? Or do you just need large uninterrupted blocks of time for yourself to write?

writing retreat

At our writing meet-ups, we aim to create a social and collaborative space for your writing processes. We help you find writing buddies and form your writing groups; we also introduce strategies and approaches (such as the Pomodoro Technique) to assisting in your writing process, enhancing your research skills, using productivity tools, and much more.
