Weekly

Shut up and write! (SUAW) - Weekly facilitated writing sessions are designed to help researchers get their writing done! SUAW sessions happen every day of the week - mostly via Zoom. SUAW sessions are open to all researchers, and they're hosted by the RED team and other researchers across the La Trobe network. We use the Pomodoro technique of focused 25-minute writing sprints interleaved with short breaks.

How to sign up

To join in on our Shut up and write! (SUAW) writing sessions please email red.grs@latrobe.edu.au to sign up for the mailing list.
