Hi everyone, If you are interested in getting more writing out of your writing for publication sessions (or learning how to help the medical students you supervise), we encourage you to register for our March workshop series from DPL. These sessions offer practical, immediately useful strategies and tools to address these issues plus techniques for pulling long writing days, working around writing blocks to keep writing and more. Registration link and full descriptions below. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/strategies-and-tools-to-generate-more-scholarly-writing-and-complete-work-tickets-836206404867?aff=oddtdtcreator Session Dates: March 6, 13, 20, and 27 from 12-1 EST--All sessions are recorded for all registrants. Attend live and/or watch recordings. Workshop Session Descriptions (all four included with registration) Session 1 The Framework of an Effective Scholarly Writing Session: In our opening session, find out tools and strategies you can use to make sure your scheduled scholarly writing times produce more writing. Whether you have scattered 15 minute sessions sprinkled throughout the day, write one day a week, or have a regular writing time each day, writing sessions that produce the most writing or are the most productive share some common features. Incorporate these features in your next writing session to get more work completed. Session 2: Forward vs. Circular Progress: Many "productivity" systems for writing focus on word count, page count, or time spent "writing" to measure how productive a session was. Yet these measures don't necessarily move a piece closer to a dissertation defense or publication. This session offers insight into techniques for making forward vs. circular progress so you actually KNOW if your writing session was productive or not. Session 3: What to Do When You Get Stuck: Writer's block can happen for a variety of reasons including boredom and burnout. Find out strategies for combatting it immediately in the moment when it strikes so you don't lose days to not writing. Session 4: The Loooooong Writing Session: While not ideal, many academics have to write in long "binge" periods out of a necessity. This session will offer strategies and tools for getting more writing out of a long day while recognizing the physical and mental challenges that accompany the longer writing session. I'm happy to answer any questions about this series.
