VDP Academic Writing Workshop

“Bird by bird! Writing powerful small assignments in flow” - 11.3.2024, 13:00-14:30, room 3A, NIG, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna

Anne Lamott wrote one of the most popular books about the writing process :"Bird by bird: Instructions on Writing & Life". The book is funny, heart warming and very wise. Looking at the whole process of writing a dissertation we will focus on the question how the actual writing phase can become productive and joyful through Anne Lamotts strategies "bird by bird" and "shitty first draft".

Please bring paper, pens and an open mind.
I am looking forward to meeting you and writing with you
