Writing Together and Alone

A writespace special event

Sept 24 & 25

What does social balance in writing look like and feel like to you? Where is your own personal sweet spot between the allure of solitary writing, the intimacy of a writing partnership, and the comfort of writing in community?

In this WriteSPACE Special Event, international writing expert Helen Sword will guide you through a series of exercises to help you find your own ideal balance between solitary writing and social support. You’ll learn research-based strategies for establishing an ideal writing partnership, group, or community, and Helen will introduce you to her new WriteSPACE Travel Grants, which foster writing alliances designed to supplement your solo writing.
