The summer 2019 interdisciplinary faculty writing retreat is designed to:

• Create a motivated and positive environment that fosters excellent work
• Encourage productivity through accountability and camaraderie
• Help you accomplish a writing project this summer

The retreat includes five days of committed writing time, mini-sessions on removing productivity challenges and fostering good writing habits, discussions on writing style, grammar, and more.

The retreat is open to anyone working on a scholarly writing project. The goal is for each participant to arrive with a work in progress and leave with a manuscript prepared for submission.
