The Write Mindset
In small groups, analyse your writing habits and preferences. What helps/hinders your progress? What motivates you to write? In what setting do you write best? How can you develop the “write mindset” and make writing more manageable, enjoyable, and productive? Writing is a large part of your research career. Discuss ways to develop and sustain good writing habits.
