Academic Writing Retreat
Sunday 8 September 2024
09:30 – 16:30
Price: from 拢40
Venue: University of Manchester
Writing as a group creates a productive environment that is supportive. Writing together then becomes a focused social activity, in which each participant works on their own writing goals.
In this in-person writing retreat, you will find an environment to write, share and discuss our processes of engagement with the craft of writing as part of a community of practice.
This event is designed to create and environment to:
- Engage in writing a specific piece of work and engage in reflective activities regarding your own writing
- Explore strategies to overcome writing blocks and
- Share tips and resources that support the writing process and that encourage the creation of spaces for writing together.
Also there will be opportunities to gain access and share tools and suggestions which will add to the scope of your skills.
To make the most of the writing retreat, you are invited to prepare your plan of what you are going to write during the two days and where you plan to publish/submit your work.
This is an in-person writing retreat. We intentionally built as an extension that takes place prior the our annual conference, and that becomes an extended space to focus on your research.
The writing retreat is focused, productive, supportive, reflective, personalised, for sharing, and community based
Please note that participants would need to commit to attend the entire retreat and to focus exclusively on writing. It is recommended not to be connected to email or search engines during the writing sessions.
