Most academics begin the summer with good intentions.
The article.
The book chapter.
The revise-and-resubmit.
The dissertation.
The grant proposal.
Then summer begins.
Travel.
Family.
Conferences.
Research trips.
The projects you've been putting off all year suddenly compete for your attention.
Before you know it, August arrives, and the writing you hoped would happen is still waiting.
The Summer Writing Studio was created to help make this the summer your writing actually moves forward.
The Outcome
By the end of six weeks, you will have:
✓ A protected writing rhythm
✓ Dedicated time for your most important project
✓ A supportive scholarly community
✓ Greater clarity and confidence
✓ Meaningful movement on work that matters
✓ Momentum you can carry into the rest of the semester
The Summer Writing Studio is designed to change the conditions that make writing feel so difficult in the first place.
But through structure, support, sustained community, and steady presence—so your writing can actually move again.
This is for you if you are:
- sitting with a draft that isn’t moving
- working on a dissertation, article, or book chapter
- navigating a revise & resubmit
- feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from your writing
- craving structure, support, and community—but not pressure
This is for you if:
- You have a draft that isn't moving—but needs to.
- You're working on an article, dissertation, book chapter, book manuscript, or grant proposal.
- You keep putting your writing at the bottom of your to-do list, despite your best intentions.
- You're tired of writing alone and long for the accountability and encouragement of a supportive community.
- You need dedicated time, gentle structure, and protected space to think.
- You're looking for a compassionate container that supports your writing process rather than a traditional critique group.
- You know that perfectionism, fear, self-doubt, or other psychological barriers are getting in the way of your writing.
- You're ready to stop waiting for the "perfect time" and create sustainable momentum instead.
The Summer Writing Studio
A six-week community for real academic lives
Attend what works for you.
Come to one session each week or all three.

The goal is staying connected to your writing.

a note on partcipation - designed for real academic lives
This is a flexible space. You decide what works for you.
Stay connected in the way that nourishes your writing and your wellbeing.
This is not just a writing group
(you don't need me for that!)
This is a structured, dynamic writing container where you are supported in:
- clarifying what you’re trying to say
- moving through stuck points in real time
- building sustainable momentum
- staying connected to your work without burning out
- honoring your humanity (you're not a machine!)
- feeling seen and heard by showing up as you are (no judgment)
Each week includes:
- light teaching + guidance
- focused co-writing time
- reflection + optional sharing
- simple, focused reflections to help you move through what’s getting in the way
This is not about writing more.
It’s about writing with support, clarity, and intention.
Not productivity hacks.
But real community supporting your thinking and writing process.
You don’t need more pressure. You need the right conditions.
And those can be created.
