✒️📓Join us for "Writing Against the Clock: Nurturing Your Creativity in the Academic World" In Pt 1 we welcome @irinadumitrescu.bsky.social , @bruceholsinger.bsky.social , Julia Istomnia, & Helen Sword. In Pt 2, we write together 😎Register now! 🔗1: bit.ly/MAAGSCWrite1 🔗2: bit.ly/MAAGSCWrite2

A Virtual Workshop offered by the MAA’s GSC: "Writing Against the Clock: Nurturing Your Creativity in the Academic World" Guest experts: Irina Dumitrescu, Bruce Holsinger, Julia Istomnia, Helen Sword. With this webinar and companion workshop, the GSC aims to get our graduate student community writing quickly, often, and efficiently, all while prioritizing the fun of it all. Dissertation completion grants and research fellowships are sadly too few and far between; most of us will not find ourselves with uninterrupted time to write without other responsibilities like teaching, service, and other personal and professional obligations pulling us away. How can we make the most of the precious time we have to do the work we love and do it well? How can we overcome the obstacles to writing that come with writing in the real world? How do some academics strike the right balance and seem to write nonstop? In part one of this event (Feb 10th), our guest speakers — all prolific writers of academic books and articles as well as works of creative fiction — will share reflections on the writing process and will answer your burning questions. Then, in part two (Feb 18th), we’ll put the advice of the experts into practice with an open writing hour, guided by Camila Marcone. Part 1: 10 February 2025 2-3PM EST Part 2: 18 February 2025 2-3PM EST Register To attend Each Part
