Writing Warriors
Writing Warriors are dedicated to continuously improving their writing. As part of our group, you will learn to overcome procrastination and writer’s block. As a result, you will become a more productive and skilled academic writer. You will develop good habits, such as time management, so that writing is a regular part of your life, rather than a chore. You will learn to use writing groups to increase your motivation and to exchange structured, substantive feedback. You will improve your technical skills (e.g., punctuation and grammar) and writing style (e.g., emphasis and concision). You will accomplish these goals by writing a few pages every week, exchanging feedback with other graduate students and faculty, and reading about the topics that most interest you. These resources will assist you in setting up your Writing Warriors group and finding books and websites to help you with your writing.
