Fogler Library to host online Publish and Thrive Challenge March 20–24
The University of Maine Fogler Library and Writing Center will host the online Publish and Thrive Challenge March 20–24. This online, asynchronous program is open to all, with particular relevance for graduate students and early career scholars.
Each day, for five days, participants will receive an email with brief tasks designed to build publishing acumen and confidence by identifying venues to publish and present your work, explore the process of responding to calls for proposals in both academic and popular presses, examine your rights as an author, and increase the overall visibility of your work.
Participants will also have an opportunity to share their insights and experiences with other participants, and hear from UMaine faculty, graduate students, and local authors publishing and presenting across a wide range of disciplines and genres.
Additionally, student participants will be invited to a practice presentation in the Writing Center on April 5, nearly two weeks before UMaine’s Student Symposium. Symposium participants are encouraged to use this Publish and Thrive Challenge to prepare their scholarly work for this symposium.
RSVP for the challenge here. For questions or to request a reasonable accommodation, contact Jen Bonnet at jenbonnet@maine.edu.
