Hey hey hey, so I had a revelation yesterday when I successfully wrote 1000 words in something like 3.5 hours for my dissertation which has made me very very happy with myself.
My university ran a virtual writing retreat which I think pushed for me to be the most productive. The idea behind it was 15 mins at the start where everyone shared their goals for the day (whether that was getting a certain amount of reading or writing done or making a full plan for a section or something like that), then 1.5hrs of doing where we had cameras and mics off but were still in the video call, then a 15 mins chat of how we were doing and what we had gotten up to and if any goals needed to be changed based on how we had done in the first half, 15mins break where we were told to walk away from screens and get a bit of fresh air and a drink, and then 1.5hrs doing, finishing with a final 15min chat about what we’d achieved and if we reached our goals that we set at the start of the session 
I’m a bit gutted because they’ll be doing one more writing retreat for next week but I’ll be working so I can’t do it 🥲
