Finding uninterrupted time to work on a writing project is often a challenge. Whether we are drafting a book proposal, an article, an op-ed, or a fellowship proposal, distractions tend to chip away at our best-laid writing plans. Make the beginning of summer an opportunity to focus on your writing project by joining colleagues for a 1-day \u201cwrite-on-site.\u201d CFE will provide coffee, snacks, and a place for quiet, individual work. You bring your writing projects and emerging ideas.<\/p>\n
