The Long Night of Writing

Writing during the Silence of the Night.

Have you ever experienced 'reverse writer’s block', meaning instead of blanking out, everything in your head suddenly becomes clear and you can't get the words and ideas down fast enough? Whether you are in class or writing a major paper, academic writing is part of earning an academic degree.

The JKU would like to extend an invitation to students to attend the Long Night of Writing. You can:

  • get lots of useful tips and suggestions to help your approach to writing your academic paper
  • take exercise classes to help relax your mind and ease any back tension
  • and enjoy a loooooong time to write: from 6:00 AM to 6:00!

We can accommodate up to 150 students so be among the first to get there! It's first come, first served.
