How do they do it? I'm talking about those graduate students who publish articles, conduct research, fly to conferences, and still find time to be caught up on every Netflix show. This workshop on April 16 will explore the type of time you have and how best to be productive with it (because not all time is the same when it comes to writing). Sign up today and learn how to maximize your writing productivity!

How do they do it? I'm talking about those graduate students who publish articles, conduct research, fly to conferences, and still find time to be caught up on every Netflix show the weekend it comes out. The answer is time management, but it's not as simple as you think it is.

Everyone only has twenty-four hours in a day, which is to say those students churning out publications left and right aren't given more time to write than you are--but that isn't to suggest all time is equal. Family commitments. Commuting. Teaching obligations. The list goes on. We each have a unique time profile that cuts into our twenty-four hours, so what we can each produce will vary (often drastically).

This workshop will show you what your time profile is. From there, we will explore the type of time you have and how best to be productive with it (because not all time is the same when it comes to writing). We will also explore how realistic writing goals factor into good time management. This way, when you leave the workshop, you will understand what type of writing expectations you should hold and how to maximize your writing productivity.
