2021: ONLINE May mini-writing retreat

Due to the popularity of our previous 3-day HDR writing retreats, we are now running monthly 1-day mini-writing retreats. The 1-day writing retreat will be both a face-to-face and an online event. So, if you have missed participating in on-campus workshops where you can meet/talk to your fellow HDR candidates face-to-face, you can join us in a sufficiently large room to allow social distancing. Alternatively, if you are off campus or prefer to participate in this event online this option is also available. Please ensure you register for the appropriate session on myrdc as numbers for the face-to-face option will be limited.

The 1-day writing retreat provides a structured program to help you progress your thesis and your writing skills. Each retreat schedules large chunks of writing time so you can get on with your own writing. There will also be access to 1:1 consultations with an HDR learning advisor.

The retreat provides a perfect opportunity to break away from your usual activities and focus solely on writing, so please arrange to participate from 10am until 4pm on the day. It is suggested that you take paid leave from any paid work and plan childcare, if applicable.

In this registration, please include a short writing plan in the box labelled Special needs describing what you plan to write during the day.
