Write Club

If you want dedicated time to focus on your writing projects this fall, consider joining the Faculty Center’s Write Clubs!

Write Club welcomes participants from all parts of the Pace community, including full-time faculty, part-time faculty, staff, students, or any variation thereof. We understand that occasional absences may occur and encourage you to join if you believe that you will be able to attend most sessions.

Why join Write Club?

  • Boost Your Productivity: Dedicate an hour each week to writing or writing-related tasks, providing the momentum needed to overcome creative hurdles and produce consistent work.
    Personal Accountability: Hold yourself accountable to your writing goals within a supportive group setting, fostering a sense of commitment and progress.
    Support of a Writing Community: Benefit from the encouragement and camaraderie of individuals from various backgrounds and roles within the institution who are all committed to writing and professional growth

There are two different Write Clubs you can join. You are welcome to join both or either. For Write Club 1, the first and last five minutes of the session will be allocated for brief discussion, with the remainder dedicated to focused writing time. For Write Club 2, Alicia Clark-Barnes, PhD from the Learning Commons will be available to provide writing support.
