These successes are due in part to the cross section of participants that include administrators and full professors; mid-career tenured faculty; early career and adjunct faculty as we as lecturers and staff.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Sit &#8216;N&#8217; Write, which is a writing community for faculty, staff, and advanced graduate students, we have also developed a workshop series called Publish and Flourish. The series offers writing workshops from academic, and vanity press editors; writing coaches; university administrators; and full professors as well as public intellectuals. While these events are open to the campus community at large, each workshop offers one on one and group coaching to Sit N Write participants exclusively after the workshop. For Spring 2024 we will have Publish and Flourish workshops on writing for public consumption and developing a publishing pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>We strongly encourage everyone, advanced graduate students; lecturers; new tenure track faculty; mid-career tenured faculty; full professors; grant writers; and campus administrators, to join our safe space community.
