IASH Fellows and Affiliates recently enjoyed a writing retreat in the Scottish Highlands, kindly facilitated by Dr Anna Pilz.
From 22-24 November as part of Academic Writing Month, 25 members of the IASH community visited the Burn, a country house near Brechin owned by Goodenough College, an independent educational charity. The group enjoyed walks, board games, art-making activities and discussions alongside focused writing sessions. Each attendee set a writing goal for the weekend, and was able to take advantage of four structured sessions each day, interspersed with plenty of coffee and cake.
Our thanks to Anna for facilitating so brilliantly, and to the staff at the Burn for their thoughtful care.
