About the writing retreat

The purpose of a writing retreat is to get away from the distractions of everyday life to concentrate fully on your academic writing. A retreat leader from the Unit for Academic Language will guide you through a structured half day of individual writing and group reflections on the writing process.

Recommendations for participants

  1. Plan ahead what you want to write and for what purpose.
  2. Avoid taking literature with you to read. The purpose of this half day is to focus on writing.
  3. Make sure that you can work uninterrupted and stay until the end.
