The Office for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion invites you to participate in an NCFDD workshop, "Writing and Procrastination: How to Identify Your Writing Blocks and Move Through Them," facilitated by Anthony Ocampo, PhD, from the California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

This workshop is for faculty and postdoctoral scholars who want to learn the following:
. What resistance is and why academic writers experience it in
pursuit of work they want to do.
. How to identify what's holding you back from writing and
completing your article, book manuscript, grant proposal, etc.
. The three most common types of writing blocks and how to move
around them.
. How to create a community of support and accountability for your
writing.

The workshop will be held on Thursday, February 11, 2016, from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., in the Dolores Huerta Conference Room (Student Center). Registration is required and on a first-come, first-served basis. To register, please visit
