Just Write Continues Friday, October 9th from 2:00-5:00pm
Do you need a change of scenery from your campus and/or home office? Are you looking for a writing community, but not another critique group? Are you looking, in other words, for a space to “just write”? If so, join the Humanities Institute for Just Write. Sessions will meet throughout the Fall 2026 semester on Fridays from 2:00-5:00pm in 301 Reynolda Hall, continuing this Friday, October 9, 2026. The HI provides space, coffee, and light snacks, you do the rest. We hope to see you there!
All sessions will be held in 301 Reynolda Hall, except for Friday, November 6th when it will be held in the ZSR Library, Room 664.
This fall, we will also be adding a virtual accountability option. If you cannot attend in person but would like to check in via Zoom, you can register here.
