Wednesday Morning Graduate Writing Group

Meeting time: 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. CT
Format:
registered (same attendees each week, attendance required)
Mode: in person
Location: Helen C. White Hall, 6th floor
Facilitator: Ileaha Anderson

This writing group meets in person on the 6th floor of Helen C. White hall each Wednesday at 9 a.m. While writing can sometimes be an isolating experience, this group can offer solidarity and community as well as accountability. We will touch base at the beginning of each session, allocating about 15 minutes for setting goals and fostering connections between writers. For the majority of the session, participants will write and work on their own individual drafts, with Ileaha available for one-on-one conferences. At the end of each session, we’ll debrief together, celebrating and reflecting on the day’s work.
