Top floor: El Corte Ingles Pintor Sorolla-Colón Building. La plaça Valencia Colón I sit at the back of the cafe where the red-orange sofas are. To distinguish me from others, you'll see a battery-powered autumn-colored candle holding down a small yellow SU&W sign on the tabletop. Join me weekly for some focused writing time. This event repeats weekly , same day, same time, same bat channel. I sit at the back of the cafe where the two orange-red sofas are. All writers and all experience levels are welcome. We don't pry, do readings, or critiques, so feel free: no one will see what you've written. This session is about making room for yourself and building your relationship with your work. Hopefully also, to build a few friendships with like-minded and not-like-minded writers along the way. Bring your preferred writing tools. Bring cash or card if you want to buy water, coffee, other, or food. I sit at the back of the cafe where the two orange-red sofas are. Bathrooms are nearby. 10:30: Check-in. State what you hope to accomplish, if anything, during the writing session = Set the scope and intention of your writing hour. 10:40: I set a timer for about one hour. 10:40 - 11:40 +/- We write quietly together. Everyone works on their own project quietly. If your phone rings please take the phone call away from the writing area. 11:45: +/- Check-in. Are you ready to check in or do you need more time to write. Check-in: Did you accomplish what you hoped to? What 'next step' do you have, if any? That is all. Nobody asks you to share what you wrote. This is not a critique group. This is a ' build your relationship to your work and to other writers ' group. This is a 'privacy with company and accountability' writing group. We can talk about our successes and challenges as writers, curious interests, or if you don’t have time to stick around, that's ok too. It will be lunchtime by then and most of us may get hungry! NOTE: We have another group developing for learning, critiques or readings. Other Important Details: Travel / Parking info: Check google maps. There are numerous bus, tram, and metro options. Venue Guidelines: Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.
