Shut Up and Write (Weekly Winter sessions) Innis Edition

Session Description

Having trouble with finding the time and motivation to write?
Need a jumpstart to focus on writing for your assignment, screenplay, short story, cover letter, or grant application?

Shut Up and Write is a chance for academic and creative writers within the UofT community to write productively in a communal setting.
