How Shut Up & Write! Works

How Shut Up & Write! Works

Our events follow a simple yet effective format:

Group of people having a meeting at a cafe with laptops, notebooks, and drinks on the table, surrounded by green plants on the wall.

Find an event nearby or online. Connect with writers of all backgrounds.

Step 1: Gather.

Two people typing on laptops at a wooden table, with a smartphone and a cup of coffee nearby.

Write independently and distraction-free for a set period of time.

Step 2: Write.

Two people sitting at a wooden table participating in a 'Shut Up & Write!' session, engaged in conversation. One has a laptop and the other has a notebook, with beverages on the table. A few other people are in the background, with art on the walls.

Keep writing, chat with fellow writers, or head out—whatever works for you!

Step 3: Repeat.

Create your free account, find a session, and start writing today.
