We’re extremely excited to open our new space in the Hartford Times Building this fall! The Writing Center will be located in room 218 of the new building, right in the middle of everything. You can drop in to chat with us about any kind of writing at whatever stage of the writing process you’re at, or you can make an appointment by visiting hartford.mywconline.com to reserve an hour for yourself.

The center opens on September 11th, and we’ll be here for you this whole semester. We look forward to seeing your writing!

What a semester!

We had a lot of excellent conversations about writing at the center this semester, and I hope you were able to discuss your paper with us. The Writing Center closes over the summer, and we’ll be back in the Fall, on September 11th.

Check in with us soon to see some photos of our center!

The Writing Center will be open during Finals Week on Monday and Tuesday!

 

Monday 9AM-4PM

Tuesday 10AM-4PM

 

While the scheduler will be closed, we will be available on a first-come-first-serve basis for any walk-in writers!

Good luck with your finals!

Hello, writers! The Writing Center is open for the Spring 2017 semester–our last semester here in West Hartford. We invite you to come in and see us, speaking about your work and learning about yourself as a writer.

The Writing Center is now closed for the Winter Break, but we will be back open on Monday, January 30th. You will be able to start scheduling appointments in the week before that.

Have  a happy holiday and come back to see us next semester!

The Writing Center will be open for the Fall Semester starting on September 12th, and we look forward to seeing your work soon!

If you find that you are in need of significant help on a regular basis, you can contact us to make a standing appointment, which can begin in the first two weeks of the semester before the Center opens.

We remain committed to helping every writer get the best work onto the page, and if you have any writing-related questions, we are happy to help you with them.

The Writing Center at the Hartford Campus will be opening again on February 1st, so make sure you get your accounts ready. If you already have an account with the Writing Center, you are good to go, and you can make an appointment by visiting our scheduler at
