I'd be interested in attending.  Thanks for suggesting it, Harry.

Subject: Could an on-campus writing retreat work?
To: [log in to unmask]




Students often have trouble writing assignments, and so their work arrives at the last minute before the due date.  Is it really any easier for faculty to write that article, grant proposal, or course syllabus that has been planned for months or years?  Here is what looks like an interesting idea to for writers to get away from the stress of the world and join with writers to  focus on writing.  At least it sounds cheap to try.  Any interest in this among my colleagues?
