Monday Motivator Writing Circle Series: Goal Setting, Accountability, and Dedicated Zoom Writing Time
Mondays, October 25 and November 1, 8, 15, 22
1:30 pm–3:00 pm
Let’s get writing! In our Fall Writing Reboot Workshop, we discuss the power and importance of starting (or joining) a weekly writing circle to keep you energized and motivated for a productive fall writing season. In this 5-week series we will put this into practice by meeting each week for dedicated writing time, goal setting and accountability. Participants will draw from their 5-week writing plan created as part of the Fall Writing Reboot Workshop to help them stay focused on their writing tasks. As part of this series, participants will be invited into small groups to create their personalized Monday Motivator Writing Circle. Each week we will meet for a moment altogether, and then breakout into our circles to jump right into accountability and goal sharing.
The format is simple:
- 30 minutes of goal setting and accountability with your writing group
- 1 hour of optional writing time
At the end of the 5-weeks you will walk away with more energy and inspiration for your writing, you will be a more productive scholar, and you might even choose to keep your circle going after the series has ended because it works so well.
