Save the dates Hello fellow CSWAC members, Our first virtual CSW writing retreat was wonderful – at its conclusion I realized I had gotten some real writing done and had exercised, and those are two of the most challenging things for me to fit into my regular days. That felt great. In response to feedback, we’re scheduling more virtual retreats, on a biweekly basis. * Two of them will be short, only for a 2-hour block each (5/7 and 5/21 9-11am), to accommodate the schedules of more people (a little writing is so much better than no writing, we figure). * One of them will be longer, 6/4 9am-2pm, with a treat built in. * At the conclusion of the 6/4 gathering we can discuss whether to continue into the summer. Also, if people want to stay for a few minutes after the shorter retreats conclude, for the purpose of talking about writing strategies, we can keep the Zoom room open, and I can join you. No pressure, though. It was inspiring to see others’ writing goals and to share space (even when we had our videos off – just knowing others were at it was what I needed). Please know that all are welcome at these retreats, even if your writing is to brainstorm, make outlines, compile notes, develop writing plans, or whatever – it’s all writing, and it’s all about fostering your research. And again, kids, pets, and other loved ones are welcome. Look for the calendar invitations from CSW, and it would be great if you could RSVP to the invites, so we have some sense of attendance in advance. But if you realize at the last minute that you can join us, please be spontaneous and do so! Looking forward, Jessica Jessica R.
