2nd Annual UNBSJ Writing Retreat-SJ

Event Details:

After the success of the First Annual Writing Retreat last March, we decided to take advantage of our new study break this fall and hold another.

For the first four days of the Fall Break, from November 5 - 8, between 9 a.m. - 4 p.m., come and share a peaceful, quiet, communal space for work on campus. Come all four days, or just for a single or even part day.

We will provide a writing surface large enough to work on, a place to plug in your laptop, coffee or tea, and a silent environment in which to work. You bring your work and a bag lunch.

Between 12–1 p.m., we will put our work aside and have lunch together.

This is, ideally, a time to write that article or prepare a conference paper. But if you want to mark or do course prep, or any other work, that’s fine too. There is only one rule: no talking during the designated working time. Ear-phones welcome, but please be considerate with the volume.

The 2nd Annual Writing Retreat will give you 24 hours to focus on your work. All part-and full-time faculty, instructors, librarians, and graduate students are welcome.

Email jones@unb.ca for further details. UNBSJ is committed to accessibility. Please get in touch with any questions or concerns.
