​Ready, Set, Flow:
​How to Overcome Overwhelm & Make the Most of Your Writing Time
​

A Half Day Online Writing Retreat for University Scholars
sponsored by

Graduate School of Arts and Sciences

Friday, November 18, 10:00 am - 4:00 pm Eastern
​

Learn How to Dive Right In

You’re not alone if you:
  • feel overwhelmed by all the writing you need to get done and how long it will take;
  • constantly question whether you and your writing are good enough;
  • ​find it impossible to work in short writing blocks;
  • avoid your writing because you just don't know where to start;
  • crave uninterrupted blocks of writing time, but feel paralyzed when you finally sit down to write;
Sound familiar? If so, this retreat will give you the time you need to write and the strategy you need to make the most of that time.

​You’ll learn how to quickly clarify what needs to be done and how to enjoy a strong sense of satisfaction once you’re finished. By the end of the day, you will have made meaningful, measurable progress on your writing. You will know how to identify exactly what needs to be done in each writing session. And you’ll know how to apply those skills to future writing sessions. 

How Will it Work?

  • We’ll begin with a workshop that teaches you to quickly start each writing session with focus.
  • ​You'll apply what you learned during your writing time, working on whatever manuscript feels most meaningful and manageable;
  • ​​​We’ll close by reflecting on your accomplishments and next steps
  • You’ll feel enthusiastic about your writing and confident that you can jump start it on your own. 

Ready. Set. Flow.
