Year 3 Writing Development Course

In Year 3 you've come so far, yet the road to completion can seem steep and lonely. This two-day in-person retreat is designed to boost motivation and productivity by working together in a calm environment, away from all distractions. 

On Day 1, as well as timed writing sessions, for motivation and perspective you'll consider your whole PhD journey. Towards the end of Day 1 you'll share two pages of your text with another participant, together with a paragraph to give your text context. Within carefully structured parameters you'll receive peer feedback at the start of Day 2. Day 2 includes more timed writing sessions, a one-to-one consultation and short booster sessions to increase productivity. Over both days we'll be working together to review progress, reinforce techniques and, in a mutually supportive space, we'll be sharing strategies for moving forward to submission.
