Or maybe some data analysis that just keeps slipping to the bottom of your to-do list?&nbsp;Alongside everything else that needs to fit in with our busy research lives, it can be hard to schedule devoted time in which to sit, think, and write. Our online&nbsp;retreats&nbsp;give you time, peace, and space to fend off procrastination and beat&nbsp;writer&#8217;s&nbsp;block. Each session will provide a friendly and constructive environment in which to meet like-minded peers, discuss challenges and work in a focused way using the established Pomodoro technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following are some tips consider in advance of the&nbsp;retreat:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bring a piece of work with you: It might be part of a chapter or article you are&nbsp;writing, or maybe a presentation, bit of data analysis, or feedback you need to work through. Any task that would benefit from focused work time and motivation from your peers is appropriate<\/li><li>Get ready: Participants find that if they are set up when the&nbsp;retreat&nbsp;gets started, it is easier to focus. Open any documents or applications you need, grab a notebook, shut off your phone and social media in advance<\/li><li>Get comfortable: Can you create your ideal&nbsp;writing&nbsp;environment? Check your chair and lighting, make a cup of tea or coffee and get comfy. There will be regular breaks, but comfort is important to your productivity.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The University of York is hosting the first session, followed by sessions held by our colleagues in other universities &#8211; you are welcome to attend any of these sessions, and as many as you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Host<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Link<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>27<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;June, 10.00-12.00<\/td><td>York<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyork-ac-uk.zoom.us%2Fj%2F91367122771%3Fpwd%3DTWhrSmQ5OVJIR0taN1FGWkltUmRkZz09&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ctom.rusbridge%40kcl.ac.uk%7Cc998de7f812447499fff08da4a2f892f%7C8370cf1416f34c16b83c724071654356%7C0%7C0%7C637903865285583556%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=DuNnmhpGSvsmiDuAwo4zidLR%2B2NTRXGrkfrM4%2BajEd4%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/york-ac-uk.zoom.us\/j\/91367122771?pwd=TWhrSmQ5OVJIR0taN1FGWkltUmRkZz09<\/a>&nbsp;Meeting ID: 913 6712 2771, Passcode: 411220<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;July, 10.00-12.00<\/td><td>King\u2019s<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/92073283923?pwd=ZDVYcGovcXZEbklNcWhIOXNmdHVsQT09\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/92073283923?pwd=ZDVYcGovcXZEbklNcWhIOXNmdHVsQT09<\/a>&nbsp;Meeting ID: 920 7328 3923, Passcode: 741290<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>11<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;July, 14.00-16.00<\/td><td>Imperial<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimperial-ac-uk.zoom.us%2Fj%2F98270284882%3Fpwd%3DbjJxaVVyYm50SWVWY0pvWHFmejRWQT09&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ctom.rusbridge%40kcl.ac.uk%7C57b3b957117940c982bc08da50656337%7C8370cf1416f34c16b83c724071654356%7C0%7C0%7C637910693649512082%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=xnbQfNnyBJPtZFH%2Fx4wKZ%2BQOlYufEJfvHLIwk1NQoCM%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/imperial-ac-uk.zoom.us\/j\/98270284882?pwd=bjJxaVVyYm50SWVWY0pvWHFmejRWQT09<\/a>&nbsp;Meeting ID: 982 7028 4882, Passcode: 1mB=iX<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>13<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;July, 10.00-12.00<\/td><td>Brighton<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/95185608530?pwd=RVpqMjZDRVU1MUdESkVMdi9JdWJsdz09\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/95185608530?pwd=RVpqMjZDRVU1MUdESkVMdi9JdWJsdz09<\/a>&nbsp;Meeting ID: 951 8560 8530, Passcode: 902143<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>18<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;July, 14:00-16:00<\/td><td>Cambridge<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/85983432641?pwd=VDM5SlNsNjM2TlVxTnVORHBlejgwZz09\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/85983432641?pwd=VDM5SlNsNjM2TlVxTnVORHBlejgwZz09<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>25th July, 10.00-12.00<\/td><td>Glasgow<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fuofglasgow.zoom.us%2Fj%2F93991654792&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ctom.rusbridge%40kcl.ac.uk%7C01ac4d3b66b24281d65008da507fbb80%7C8370cf1416f34c16b83c724071654356%7C0%7C0%7C637910806794141068%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=EZpCTKY27RLK%2F2d%2BEEyL2%2FNXswtYsdNRCVjwzaYpcO4%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/uofglasgow.zoom.us\/j\/93991654792<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>26th July, 10.00-12.00<\/td><td>Ulster<\/td><td>Join Zoom Meeting:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fj%2F88034646971%3Fpwd%3DVkFSNUpsMEFaYzFGcW9md2F4RmZzZz09&amp;data=05%7C01%7Ctom.rusbridge%40kcl.ac.uk%7C57a7e8a235cb4af5893408da52bc0f4a%7C8370cf1416f34c16b83c724071654356%7C0%7C0%7C637913264917836794%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=lTTzLlNgJnokW8mKNDZVfA%2BtBuPjEb5bSLCuWjkj0U4%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/88034646971?pwd=VkFSNUpsMEFaYzFGcW9md2F4RmZzZz09<\/a>&nbsp;Meeting ID: 880 3464 6971, Passcode: 672857<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you have a deadline coming up or a piece of&nbsp;writing&nbsp;that\u2019s long overdue?
