The UConn Writing Center invites UConn graduate students to "Start the Semester Off Write" with four quick morning writing retreats as we get back into the swing of things next January.
Modeled after our popular full-day writing retreats and four-day dissertation boot camps, these weekly, two-hour retreats feature a space to write and an excuse to do it, so you can kick start your semester writing projects. The Writing Center recognizes that writing in big bursts can be helpful, but that smaller, recurring commitments can help form good writing habits throughout the semester.
Arrive with the project you are working on now and your laptop, along with any notes or books you need. There will not be any tutoring or any lectures at these sessions.
Please bring your own coffee and snacks. Coffee and tea are not provided at these retreats, but the Music and Dramatic Arts Library is directly across from Dog Lane Cafe, so you can grab a coffee on the way in and even park for free for 2 hours behind Storrs Center.
Event Details:
When: 9 – 11 a.m. for the first four Mondays of the semester: 1/25, 2/1, 2/8, and 2/15.
Where: Music and Dramatic Arts Library Seminar Room, Second Floor.
