May Online Writing Retreat for PhD students

May is the month that pretends to be manageable —but under the surface, the pressure tightens.

Deadlines. Supervision requests. Final chapters.The mental math of “how many days left until…” playing on loop in your head.

You don’t need to work harder.You need space that actually works for you.

The May Online Writing Retreat is that space.

It’s not a challenge.It’s not a productivity sprint.It’s a one-day reset for your research rhythm — a room full of people also deep in it, writing quietly alongside you.

What you’ll get:

• Four structured writing sessions, live on Zoom
• A calm pace, held by someone who knows the terrain
• Optional check-ins — no forced sharing, no false urgency
• A return to focus that doesn’t rely on pressure

This is how progress happens —not through intensity, but through consistency.
