"Writing and Publishing Post-Tenure: Reigniting Your Scholarly Productivity" 

A webinar for TWU faculty (April 21, 2:30-3:30pm)

The post-tenure period presents unique challenges for academic writers, as many faculty find themselves struggling to maintain research momentum and publication productivity after achieving this significant milestone. Without the external pressure of tenure requirements, faculty often experience decreased motivation, unclear research directions, or difficulty establishing new writing routines, leading to stalled projects and diminished scholarly output. This workshop addresses the common post-tenure writing slump by providing targeted strategies for reigniting scholarly productivity and establishing sustainable publishing practices for the long term.

In this webinar,* you'll learn practical techniques for setting meaningful research goals beyond tenure, developing accountability systems that replace external tenure pressures, and creating productive writing habits that align with your evolved career priorities. The session covers strategies for overcoming post-tenure writer's block, managing increased service obligations while protecting writing time, and navigating the shift from quantity-focused to impact-focused publishing. You'll leave with a personalized action plan for re-energizing your research agenda, concrete tools for maintaining writing momentum, and strategies for building a sustainable scholarly practice that thrives throughout your post-tenure career.
