Explore a diverse and creative pallet of writing styles in academic writing practices. In this workshop of 3,5 hours, we explore ways of expressing the story of your text. The session is designed around sample texts, and includes on-the-spot writing exercises. There will be time for peer-review, and we will take time to reflect on what it takes to make space for creativity within our academic work.
The session takes place on July 6, 2021, starting at 10.00 am and ending at 1.30 pm CEST (Amsterdam time).

The choices we make when we write have profound effects on the reality that we observe. Giving an account of our observations requires a multitude of styles of writing for achieving the greatest accuracy. Finding the most accurate style of writing for a particular purpose sometimes implies letting go of a seemingly neutral style of writing, instead embracing a plurality of voices, such as staging a dialogue or exploring a more poetic style.
This space aims to explore what happens when we loosen up the frame of our habitual academic writing practice, inviting multi-layered stories to bubble up and become part of the conversation unfolding on the page. In these interactive workshops, I lead you through a series of hands-on exercises to make you experience creative writing within your academic practice.
