Course overview
Course description
Get your work-in-progress in shape this summer by joining this supportive writers’ retreat over 5 consecutive mornings.
We will declare our goals, have dedicated writing time on our current writing project and share with peers for feedback. We’ll reflect on the feedback to help us plan our next writing steps.
Writing together helps us get words on the page. Writing together helps us keep accountable. Writing together builds motivation. The tutor will share her feedback and craft notes so learning nuggets will inspire you to improve your work.
This is ideal for those who have started something, even just early stages and could do with a boost and assigned time to get more done!
