Want to quiet the distracting inner voice that distracts or derails you as you write? Or work in a collegial 3rd space that focuses on writing progress and writer wellbeing?

Join one of my upcoming online #StructuredWriting retreats for academic and professional writers.

Details 👇

#SocialWriting

If you're interested in implementing some form of #SocialWriting practice in your institution, writing center, research group, classes or personal practice, come along to WRAP's third Annual Summit Meeting.👇

If you support academic writers from academy-adjacent positions, you're also welcome!

🟢 Why Saturday?
–The reality of writing in an academic and research environment is that we sometimes need or choose to write on a Saturday.
–Support & community make it easier to find focus and feel satisfied come Saturday afternoon.

A view of Donostia-San Sebastián from Monte Urgull. Foreground shows green Spanish olives and water on a table. Beyond that is a view that includes a bit of old fort wall, trees, La Concha bay, La Concha beach, building dotting the hillsides behind the beach and in the far background cloud frosted mountains.

Still energized and in thinking mode after yesterday's annual planning class with @jovanevery.bsky.social, I've hiked up Donostia's Monte Urgull to do some dedicated thinking and writing about the joys and logistics of running #WritingRetreats and #SocialWriting projects in 2025-2026. #MiniRetreat

Done repeatedly over the duration of the retreat, this two-step check-in process is empowering, motivating and can make space for joy.

Jensen's recipe for productive writing is key to my #StructuredWritingRetreats.

I help retreaters remember/find ways to lower stress, connect w/ the why of their work & find joy in the act of writing, even if challenging.

Smiles at the end are v. nearly universal.
#SocialWriting #StructuredWriting

The space and structure at a #WritingRetreat let you quiet other voices/demands on your time and energy so you can focus on writing, product and process.

THAT'S the magic of a retreat—permission to work on your text without distraction & with support over 1-3 days. #SocialWriting #StructuredWriting

Academic writers aren't the only ones who attend my retreats; other writers are welcome, as text type is but one part of the writing equation.

🦋 Anyone serious about moving a writing project ahead will benefit from the retreat structure & support of other writers.

I write too, though my main task is to hold the space and maintain the structure.

🦋 The best part of facilitating is seeing how satisfied everyone is at the end, not only because of our output gains but because of what we've (re)learned about writing & ourselves as writers. ✍️

[5/6]
#SocialWriting

Each session follows a 3-part structure: set goals, write, track output/observe/learn/recalibrate.

🦋 Writing together under this structure over 2 or 3 retreat days boosts commitment, keeps you on task and provides valuable peer support and incidental learning along the way.

The satisfied smiles abound. 😁😊😁
