Live Writing Accountability Sessions

If you find yourself thinking: Writing is lonely, or I need help holding myself accountable to my writing assignments, you’re in luck! Join an OASIS Peer Mentor for a Live Writing Accountability session, where you can write independently in the company of other Walden students who are also working on their own course assignments and writing projects.

  • Each session begins with a welcome, brief conversation, and sharing of a personal writing goal that can be accomplished within the designated work time.
  • You’ll then engage in 80 – 90 minutes of focused, independent work time.
  • Each session concludes with self-reflections of goal accomplishment and resource sharing.
