Do you have an essay to write that you've been putting off? Do you need to get started on your dissertation? Shut Up and Write! is a proven, no-nonsense way of getting words down on the page and making progress on your writing, transforming the (often) solitary act of writing into a social activity. In this course, you will set goals for your writing and then write for a set amount of time. The aim of the course is to improve your productivity and focus, and to get more writing done! The course is open to graduate students but also to any students who have a specific writing project they need to finish. Participants should come to class with their chosen writing device (laptop, tablet, or just paper and pen), headphones (if necessary), as well as a specific writing project or goal. (NOTE: This is *not* a course where student writing will be corrected for errors, though participants are free to ask the tutor for general writing advice.)
