This group discussed creating a writing accountability group during our last spring 22 meeting, and I am gathering interest in a mini session for the remainder of the summer.
Writing accountability groups are typically composed of 4-8 members who commit to attending weekly hour-long sessions. Each session begin with a 15 minute recap of each individuals past-week's work towards their goals (in productivity, not substance), followed by 30 minutes of communal writing, and capped by a recount of the writing period and goals for the next week's productivity. Feedback is not typically shared on the texts being developed, but we could consider that as well. We can meet in person or virtually, depending on the interests of the group.
We have about 6 weeks left of summer if we start next week. I am assuming a morning session later in the week (maybe Fridays) would be good, but we will see what works for those who are interested. Feel free to share with your colleagues!
