#AcWriMo23 last day, day 30 wasn't about my writing at all, packed with meetings but ending adminy work day discussing what to write #acwrimo
As #AcWriMo23 ends today, I can say honestly I made good progress on my writing. With the holidays starting last week, I also have a pretty writing paradise. #AcademicSky
Goal 1 - Completed
Goal 2 - Completed
Goal 3 - Working on this, made some good progress.
Goal 4 - Completed
Day 29 of #AcWriMo23 featured no new words as the day was bringing a PhD through the viva and setting the course to support Postdoctoral projects and discussing things already written and about to be written alongside. Big day.
Wow wow wow! Day 30 of Academic Writing Month. What a month. Lots of new words. Incredible shifts in writing habits. Magical noticings. Really cool ah ha moments. Nice work colleagues. May your writing habits continue to grow beyond November.

Day 27 #AcWriMo23 tried my best to add new section to intro, will need smoothing. Most of the blocks were grantwriting tasks, tried to divert or deal with them before noon to clear writing time. #acwrimo
Day 27 AcWriMo and we are considering different tools or strategies you might engage with when we hit a block.

Day 26 of #AcWriMo23 just arranged winter flowers and cleaned my desk, before writing. I will probably take a walk later to clean my brain, but for now, let's write! #acwrimo
Day 26 Academic Writing Month & we are considering the non-writing activities that help writing…sometimes I clean to process an idea, or hang out the washing, or walk…when the idea comes I go back to writing. What about you?

Day 25 #AcWriMo23 all writing starts with reading and community, and keeping rest of workload at bay. Finished tasks and read 2 good articles first thing, one for article and one for book Intro; wrote to one author to thank them. Added a few words only, but made progress.
When someone says they are crafting their dissertation together it means they are physically crafting it.

Day 24 #Acwrimo
Today’s inspiration is all about our body. What’s happening with your body as you write? How do you hold it? How do you stretch to maintain position? How do you care for you while caring for your writing?

Day 23 of #AcWriMo23 was interrupted by lots of life admin, resulting in little writing. Discussed and shared important reading. In the spirit of consistency, I returned to an old mega-article I wrote 8 years ago and appreciated the contribution it made #acwrimo
It’s Day 22 of Academic Writing Month and we are reconnecting to writing goals - check in, tweak, reset, celebrate, and reflect upon what you have achieved.

Day 21 enjoying your thread @rellypops.bsky.social, it seems to be where I'm at. In brief book writing session y'day, I was thinking about this Q - writing for the discipline? For students? They are not the same, but writing connects. New report today reminded me abt policy audience #AcWriMo23
Day 21 of AcWriMo and we are considering how we engage with our audiences through our writing.

An hour of writing managed on Day20, working in some reading notes, after a long day spent on research admin, teaching admin and leftover admin admin, plus research summit #AcWriMo23 #acwrimo

Day 19 of #AcWriMo23 was a procrastibakung day! I acknowledge a healthy number of writing achievements of this year and accepted article which won't appear before this time next year. Hope to get one more major task done before year end
Day 18 of #AcWriMo23 was spent reading

Day 19 Academic Writing Month and today’s inspirational post has us appreciating, accepting, considering or perhaps even acknowledging a recent achievement. Often hard to do. Often ignored in our writing journey. But so so worth it.

Day 17 of #AcWriMo23 was hopeless as I got dragged into research admin at usual protected time of 8am and ADDmin which ate my scheduled 50 minutes and led to more shitmin. So my top writing tip for Day 17 is don't be like me. Still motivated, so it's not too late.
Day 16 of #AcWriMo23 was very restricted, just another 50 minutes of rather fragmented, wistful nite taking from my excellent reading, oh well.
Day 17 Academic Writing Month and we are considering how you plan or map out your day to support your writing flow and productivity. Any tips as you navigate energy, commitments, and your thinking?

Keeping on top of referencing smoothes the process, but writing isn't smooth, it is lumpy, so editing, editing, editing. Day 15 #AcWriMo23 only allowed me 50 minutes of reading and note taking.
Habits for smoothness, joy and flow. What are these for you when it comes to your writing?
