Join\nour network of graduate student writers at the in-person Writing\n Café! Meet other writers\, stay on track\, and make progress in your\nwor k. Writing doesn’t have to be solitary!\n\nBUILDING SUSTAINABLE WRITING HABITS STARTS WITH STRUCTURE AND\nCOMMUNITY. Writers tackling a big writi ng project often struggle with\nisolation or a lack of structure that leav es them procrastinating. If\nthat sounds familiar\, then writing groups ca n help. This social space\nwith an established structure for getting writi ng done can help you\nfeel connected to your peers while practicing effect ive and\nsustainable writing habits. It’s open to graduate students\, po stdocs\nand faculty.\n\nWe use the Pomodoro Method to organize writing ses sions into smaller\,\nmore manageable chunks of focused writing with frequ ent breaks.
