Hello All,

Thanks to those who have already expressed interest in participating in 
a writing group workshop this month! Based on poll responses, we will meet:
*
Wednesday, 18 March 2015, 15.00-16.30**
**D4 3rd floor lounge *

How it works:
The basic idea is that you will submit a draft for review and receive a 
draft for review.  When we meet, each person will be responsible for 
providing a short summary (10 - 15 minutes) of constructive feedback and 
comments--like a discussant at a conference session. You can also 
provide written feedback (notes on hard copy or electronic mark up) if 
you think that is helpful.

If you want to participate:
Send your draft by email to Ann ( ahartell at gmail.com ) *by high noon on 
11 March*. In your email, include a short note that says:
1. what the document is (first draft of research proposal, final draft 
of a conference paper, whatever)
2. any particular areas where you would most would like feedback 
(logical structure, general readability, quality of the lit review, 
whatever).

All participants will get access to the full set of drafts submitted and 
a note on which of them they are responsible for reviewing in detail 
(along with author requests for particular areas for feedback), but 
please take a quick look at all the drafts so you can contribute as you 
can to the discussion of other drafts.  This way, we can maximize the 
feedback AND our opportunity to practice our peer reviewing skills. Plus 
get the chance to learn more about our colleagues' work.

There is no grade, these are *drafts. *They can be 'drafty'. For 
example, if you have a section that is just bullet points, that's OK. If 
your tables and figures are messy, that's OK too. The idea is to work 
with what we have to make the next draft better.

Happy writing, everyone!

Ann
