In graduate school, I’d been part of two different writing groups both of which helped me reach my writing goals (almost) every week. I also had a “check-in date” with my friend and colleague Carley, where we would meet once a week for 15 minutes or so, create goals, and check in with each other the following week. These meetings allowed us to take a coffee break on a busy teaching day, to keep a weekly log of our goals, and helped us support one another throughout the year.
