October 17-30: UR 14-Day Writing Challenge! |
|
The UR 14-Day Writing Challenge is a great way to jumpstart your writing and establish good writing habits; its approach can be especially helpful during the semester when finding the time to write becomes increasingly difficult. The on-campus challenge will overlap with the NCFDD (The National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity).

October 19: Writing Productively with Helen Sword |
|
“Publish or perish” is the mantra of the successful academic researcher. Yet few academics have been explicitly trained as writers, and fewer still have been schooled in the intricate art of maintaining research productivity without sacrificing work-life balance. In this online presentation on Wednesday, October 19 from 3:00-4:00 p.m. by international writing expert Helen Sword, you will learn about the habits of successful academic writers and develop a customized blueprint for building a more productive writing practice from the ground up. Helen Sword is the author of multiple research-based books on writing and writers including Air & Light & Time & Space: How Successful Academics Write.
