CUTLfish Shut Up and Write

posted 12 June 2017 | Staff Announcement (staff)

The weekly writing group for Murdoch staff.

In these sessions Murdoch colleagues come together for sustained writing on publications, reports, award writing, funding applications – any writing you need to get DONE!

Be a big fish in a small pond and join Wednesday morning’s Shut Up and Write group. Using the well-established Pomodoro technique the sessions will consist of 2 x 25 minutes silent writing, with a 5 minute break. Don’t worry about going overtime, writing and breaks will be timed by the facilitator.

 

Time: Every Wednesday for 60 minutes, 9.30am to 10.30am

Pond: Club Murdoch (currently located in Sir Walters Café) - reserved table

Don’t slip though the net, come along and meet that deadline. No need to commit to every week, you are welcome to join as needed.
