  1. Back in 2018 I decided I’d had it with winter weather. I headed south, all the way to Panama (where I had lived previously for a short time), and stayed during the coldest months at an AirBnB owned by a friend. I’ve been back every year, except during COVID lockdown, and it's become my #WritingRetreat.

    Now, sadly, that epoch is ending. . .

  2. File under Famous Last Words: "It'll be over by 10:30 or 11." Sure, if by 11 you mean 2 in the morning. I think Panamanians learned a different kind of math than I did. It wreaked havoc with my #WritingRetreat, but still, it was a fun party.

  3. Arrived in #Tschiertschen, my home, yesterday.

    Reading in the sun, outside.

    #WritingRetreat is off to a good start after some exciting adventures in France these last ten days. More on that later...

    I'm still processing and recovering from my travels, which is where I feel the limitations of my #MECFS most acutely.

  11. Canoe rentals at the retreat. Writing is not going well but I’m enjoying myself regardless. #WritingRetreat #writing

  12. I already enjoyed this at my former university... This week we (IWP-HSG) had a very productive #writingretreat at beautiful Schloss Wartegg. Leaving everyday life behind for working on my #research in a structured way helped me a lot to make progress on an article and conference contribution for my #habilitation. #deepwork #focus

  13. A morning in two parts: writing, then seizing a lull between two storms to pick olives with a neighbour. Pretty perfect! #WritingRetreat #AcademicWriting #Tuscany

  14. I was accepted last month for another (my second) week-long residency at the Rockvale Writers' Colony. It’s been a productive week for me (over 13,000 words so far and I still have tonight and tomorrow). See my original review of this place here: joannemerriam.com/2023/02/09/r

  16. I was one of the fellows for the 2023 Roots Wounds Words online writers’ retreat. I had an excellent time working with BIPOC writers and received plenty of useful feedback on my work. The retreat is happening again this coming January. If you’re a BIPOC writer, I recommend it. Some scholarships are available. rootswoundswords.org/applicati #BIPOCWriters #BIPOCAuthors #WritingCommunity #WritingRetreat

  17. Dear #MastodonAcademic, have any you budgeted for *writing time* when applying for research funding? I've never seen a grant bid that does so, which suggests that writing is not recognised as the #MethodOfEnquiry it is and is not accounted for in grant time. For example, budgeting for a #WritingRetreat or a project assistant to ensure grant holders have time to at least draft for the dissemination of their findings would seem reasonable to me but ....?#ResearchWriting #AcWri #HigherEducation

  18. CW: Your favourite Writing Spaces near the sea

    AcademicMastodon,

    where in the #UK (also #Europe) would you go to write & swim?

    Anglesey (North Wales) and Stintino (North Sardinia) have given me the #HeadSpace when I had to get a big project across the line.

    I need a remote space again for a final writing push this summer where i can also swim but be properly online.

    Where do you dream of and/or have 1st hand experience of?

  19. Back from my fourth #writingRetreat at Moniack Mhor in the Scottish #Highlands. My most productive yet – 4000 words thanks to magical combination of solitude and community, writing hard all day and chatting with fellow #kidlit authors at mealtimes. Highly recommend Moniack Mhor if you can find a space on an untutored retreat
