The Graduate Student Writing Group will run weekly on Wednesdays from 4:00 pm to 5:00 PM starting on March 25.

The group’s goal is to provide structure and support motivation for your writing projects. Those projects can include seminar papers, dissertations, proposals, your prospectus, exam prep– any project you’ll be working on over the remainder of the semester.

You can join the group at anytime.

The group will use a structure adapted from Paul Silvia’s How to Write a Lot.

Group meetings begin with each member describing their goals for the day, whether they met them, what might have gotten in the way, what worked, and plans for today or tomorrow.

Typically, the format for each speaker is:

My goals for __________  were __________. I did/did not meet them, if I did not meet them, it is because of __________ and __________. Some things that worked for me were_________. My goals for today/tomorrow are __________.

While problem solving is not the focus of a group meeting, group members often connect after meetings to share solutions and resources.
