Co-writing session: create your own “how to work with me” manual
A 'how to work with me' manual is like a cheat sheet for your collaborators! It's a handy guide that tells them what it's like to work with you and what your needs and preferences are, so they have more understanding of how to get the best results from a collaboration. Express interest in joining a co-writing session to create your own manual and we'll add the event to your calendar.
