Writing Group Schedule Change?

The GWN Writing Group is meeting Mondays and Wednesdays each week. We get together to each do our own work: it could be either your paper, your thesis, or something else you need to focus on at the time. No chatting except optionally at the beginning and the end.

So far we do not have so many people coming to the Monday session. If this continues I am planning to either cancel the Monday session or move it to Thursday. Please reply and let us know whether you are planning to come Monday or Thursday. We’ll make plans according to the result.
