Online Writing Retreat

Writing is a practice...
...we connect via Zoom for a series of structured writing sessions and benefit from the focus that arises out of collaboration and set time frames. Together, we can create a more effective writing process and be most productive. Our joint writing sessions will take place between 9:15-13:00. After three highly effective hours of writing, you will have the afternoon off for other work commitments, social activities, or your family. Of course, you can also continue writing on your own or there is an optional afternoon writing session from 15:00-16:00.

Over the course of three days, you will practice focused writing and thus establish routines that enable you to be more productive at home. And you'll bring your current writing project, no matter what stage it is in, to the next level. After the training, the virtual writing space "THE WRITING ACADEMIC", an online coworking space for writers, will be open for four weeks to help you apply the techniques in your everyday life.
