Academic Writing Month - LTUacwrimo
Academic Writing Month at La Trobe turns 10!
For a decade now every November, no matter the challenges of the year to date, La Trobe researchers have jumped into Academic Writing Month (AcWriMo) to refocus and prioritise writing goals before the year is out.
We know that researchers are committed to academic writing all year long. AcWriMo enables us to clarify and recommit to our writing goals, and surround ourselves with a community of writers who cheer us on.
Whether you need inspiration, motivation or support, there is something in the program for you! There’ll be writing workshops, publishing talks, tweetchats, a light-hearted AcWriMo-themed competition, themed blogposts, and the famous RED writing retreat, which will be held online to enable broad participation.
All AcWriMo events appear in the RED Workshop schedule where you can reserve your place. A summary of AcWriMo-specific event sis provided below. You can also follow our AcWriMo adventures on Twitter with #LTUAcWriMo.
