Are you having trouble getting started on your paper? Do you have a lot of ideas, but need help figuring out how to turn them into an essay? Or maybe you’re just totally confused as to where to begin, or you need a push to keep you from procrastinating until the last minute. WEST, the Writing Excellence Studio at Tech, is here to help! On Thursday, 4/7, we will be leading a dead hour workshop on pre-writing strategies. We will talk about brainstorming, organizing your thoughts, motivating yourself to write, and all manner of other things that will help you from panicking when it’s the night before the paper is due and you haven’t begun to write. The workshop will be in Henderson Hall 304B, from 11:00-11:50. No registration is required, and all are welcome! For more information, contact Dr. Brian Williams (bjwilliams@tntech.edu).
