Becoming a More Productive and Less Stressed Writer!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by your writing deadlines or struggling to stay motivated? Join us via Zoom for a dynamic session with Dr. Jan Allen, former Associate Dean, Cornell University and author of The Productive Graduate Student Writer. In this session, we’ll dive into actionable strategies to help you:

  • Develop a strategic writing plan-Set clear goals and make tangible progress.

  • Maximize your time-Learn how to effectively use blocks and bits of time (even during breaks) to move forward while still making space for self-care.

  • Leverage templates and resources-From proposals to theses, we’ve got the tools to help you plan, schedule, and complete your writing projects.

  • Overcome obstacles-Identify and tackle self-sabotaging behaviors and reduce the stress that often delays your writing progress and degree completion.

Key Takeaways:

  • Boost productivity and manage your schedule for consistent writing progress.
  • Discover techniques to stay motivated, beat procrastination, and manage perfectionism.
  • Connect with resources and supports to guide your writing journey.

Whether you’re working on a manuscript, proposal, thesis, or another major writing project, this session will help you gain momentum and reduce stress.
