The Writers' Workshop provides free, one-to-one consultations for any member of the UMD campus community seeking to become a better writer.
Because we all write, the Writers' Workshop is open to everyone on campus:
Graduate student or faculty writing consultants will collaborate with you on any project, at any stage in the writing process, and in any discipline. Make an appointment or just walk in. You'll find us in the Securian Learning Commons located on the second floor of UMD's Kathryn A. Martin Library. Look for the wall covered with quotations in the right-hand corner of the second floor.
