Writing in Community Challenge for Junior Faculty


Kick Off Your Semester Write: Writing in Community Challenge for Junior Faculty

The Howe Writing Center invites all junior faculty to join us this fall for our popular Junior Faculty Writing Hours! We are challenging Miami’s assistant professors and assistant TCPLs to gather for six Fridays between March 1st and April 19th (excluding Spring Break), in-person in King Library or online via Zoom, from 10-12, to write and create a writing community with other junior faculty. We offer the time, space and accountability you need to help you achieve your long-term writing goals (plus donuts and coffee, if you’re coming in-person). You bring your writing-in-progress--whatever it is--and settle in to work!

RSVP is required; you will be added to a Google calendar event that contains both the Zoom link and in-person location. 

Dates for the challenge are:

  • Friday, March 1 10:00-12:00
  • Friday, March 8 10:00-12:00
  • Friday, March 15 10:00-12:00
  • Friday, April 5 10:00-12:00
  • Friday, April 12 10:00-12:00
  • Friday, April 19 10:00-12:00

Participants who attend at least 4 out of 6 sessions will complete the challenge and receive a writing-themed prize.

RSVP now and commit to your writing!
