Write Here Write Now!

A fortnightly, academic-led writing session designed to help you make steady progress on your thesis or research writing in a focused group setting.

Join other PhD and Masters by Research candidates every Thursday, 10.30am–12pm, at RMIT City or Bundoora campuses.

This is not a writing instruction class. You work on your own writing using structured 25-minute Pomodoro sprints, with short breaks in between. The format is designed to reduce distractions, build momentum, and support consistent writing progress.

Sessions follow the global Shut Up and Write! model, bringing writers together for accountability, motivation, and focus.

What to expect

Three focused writing sprints (25 minutes each)
Short breaks between sessions to reset
A chance to connect informally with other research students
A quiet, focused group environment for writing.

How to prepare

Come with a clear writing goal and any materials you need. Switch off distractions so you can stay focused. Come regularly to really benefit.
