The Winter 2026 edition of the CITL Book Club provides an opportunity for Memorial colleagues from across all disciplines to explore key ideas about writing, reflect on our own practices and experiment with adaptable strategies we can bring back to both our courses and our own writing processes.

The book club is open to faculty and instructors from across Memorial's campuses. Participants will be provided with a copy of the book to use for the semester. A limited number of spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The CITL Winter 2026 Book Club will involve four hybrid meetings, held between February and April 2026. The book's author will join the group discussion for the fourth meeting.

Writing Rediscovered by Elizabeth Wardle

Throughout the book, readers are encouraged to reflect on their own writing experiences and fill their process toolbox with new tools and behaviours.
