Target Audience: For academics, researchers, and knowledge exchange staff looking for protected time and space to work on writing.

This informal, social writing workshop is intended for all staff who are looking for protected time and space to focus on their writing. The majority of the 90-minute weekly Zoom session is given over to writing together. The brief social aspect—beginning and wrapping up each session—is designed to provide continuity and encourage commitment to, and completion of, writing tasks.

In this informal, social writing workshop, participants will have the opportunity to work virtually alongside others engaged in writing while on Zoom. Offering protected time and space and a focus on writing and getting writing done, participants will be encouraged to participate in a supportive community of writers. 

Course Outcomes/ Objectives;
