We will start every day at 10 a.m. with a short check-in and finish at 6 p.m with a short check-out. In between you are free to organize your working process as you like. Our writing tutors are available for short consultations throughout each day.
Bring everything you need to work on your own project (laptop/tablet, charging cable, notebook, stationery, books, etc.).
In the room we will provide places for you to work at big tables (multiple occupancy), chairs, power outlets and a stable WI-FI connection. Similar to a reading room at a library, being quiet and mindful of others also applies to us.
To secure your spot, you need to register for the event and pay the expense contribution of 10 Euro.

Yes! We offer an active break from Tuesday to Friday, focussed on relaxation and movement. You can sign up for them in the morning of the corresponding day they take place. Please note that the capacity is limited to 12 - 15 participants and that the instructions will be in German.

Our writing tutors are available throughout the Writing Marathon for short consultations. They can, for example, help you with questions about the structure or organization of your work and show you writing strategies for when you feel blocked. They cannot give advice on subject-specific content or empirical methods. The tutors consult in English and German, as needed.
You can find more information about our writing consultations under www.stw.berlin/en/writing-consultation.
