The Dresher Center for the Humanities, the Center for Social Science Scholarship,and the Center for Innovation, Research, and Creativity in the Arts, invite CAHSS faculty and advanced graduate students to participate in Fall 2020 online research writing support groups.
Participants will gather virtually with others who are eager to advance their research-related writing (books, articles, dissertations, statements, grant proposals, book proposals, artist statements, etc.). Given the challenging events of 2020 thus far, many are struggling to find time and space to devote to research-related writing this fall.
These ongoing research writing support groups will help you make time for writing and reflection and find a group of like-minded writers who can help you keep the momentum going while creating accountability and building community! As one of our participants from this past summer’s research writing bootcamp shared, it is a “gentle, recurring tap that reminds me to turn to my research for a few hours every week.
The support groups will meet via WebEx weekly at a mutually convenient time for approximately an hour of small group, cohort-based discussion of the writing process and shared reflection on your own writing. Drop in or out as your schedule permits, but you must register in advance and commit to participating most weeks with your small group.
Register here. Questions? Contact Courtney Hobson at chobson1@umbc.edu.
