It is always Wednesday before Thursday at the WSC's Wise Wednesday!

"Time seems to slow down around the middle the week when the workload is heavier and the weekend is still too far. The only way to move ahead though is to focus all our attention on doing our best work. Time flies faster when we work and gives us the satisfaction of productivity."

In-person hours: Monday - Thursday 9-4
Online hours: Monday - Thursday 9-6 and Friday 9-12

We have our final two writing workshops happening next week, so mark your calendars and reserve your spot!

Come either Monday, November 14 at 11 for a creative writing workshop with professor Iris Dunkle (this is a reschedule event from this week). or come on ....
Thursday, November 17at 3 pm for the final creative writing workshop of the year with professor Andrea Bewick.

Reserve your spot now, or walk in day-of.

See you there!

Well, it is Wednesday again ... thank goodness!

"After a sluggish Monday and a challenging Tuesday, Wednesday comes to torment us with the dark reality of our responsibilities. If we find ourselves losing focus and thinking too much about the weekend, we should remind ourselves that concentrating on the tasks at hand will save a lot of headaches later."

Let's work on your writing tasks together at the Napa Valley College Writing Success Center!
