Workshop: Time Management for Writing Assignments of any size

The semester is coming to an end and now the term papers and theses are coming into focus. But how do you want to organize your time and resources, so that you can write those texts without getting too stressed out? It helps a great deal to understand the writing process, the phases that a writer goes through, and the many small tasks that belong to each one. In this workshop we will look at the entire writing process and discuss strategies and methods to approach it with motivation instead of stress. Bring with you all your upcoming writing tasks and projects, deadlines, and calendars, and we will figure out together exactly how you can organize and use your time productively.  The language of the workshop (German or English) will be agreed on with the participants.
