NCFDD 14-Day Writing Challenge
Registration is open through June 11 (3:00 p.m.) for the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity’s next 14-Day Writing Challenge (June 15 – June 28, 2020). The 14-Day Challenge is an opportunity for you to experiment with daily writing, online community, and supportive accountability.
It’s very simple:
- You commit to write every day for at least 30 minutes.
- At the beginning of your writing time, you login to our online community, start the timer, complete your writing, and post your progress at the end.
- You take 5 minutes to support other writers in your group by commenting on their progress.
Through NC State University’s institutional membership, all graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and faculty have access to the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD), which provides professional development, training, and mentoring.
