Hosted by the Bristol Digital Futures Institute
The retreat gives any University staff or students working in the field of digital futures the opportunity to devote a whole day to writing in a quiet, structured and supportive atmosphere. Whether you’re writing a research proposal, a paper, or a blog, this retreat provides insight into effective writing, and the space to get it done.
The retreat is facilitated by Dr Pam Lock, a lecturer in the English Department at Bristol who has been running these retreats in person and online since 2014. The feedback from these sessions is always resoundingly positive.
We have a limit of 25 places, so please sign up ASAP to avoid disappointment. There will be a waiting list for those who don't get a space initially.
