Shut Up & Write! in The Hague Centrum — July 25, 2026
Part of: Shut Up & Write! in The Hague Centrum
When: July 25, 2026, 8:30 AM – 11:30 AM
Location: Central Library, Spui 68, 2511 BT Den Haag, Netherlands
We'll meet on Level 3 at the tables in the country and ethnology ("landen en volkenkunde") section. When you exit the elevator or escalator at that level, head straight past the children's books. We'll be located past the first set of book stacks on your right and about five book stacks from the back. Shut Up & Write! hosts free in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. We aim to ensure that every writer, regardless of genre or skill level, has access to the community, accountability, and resources they need to succeed in their personal writing goals. Our events use our proven formula: a few minutes of introductions, an hour of focused writing, and a final check-in to share the hour's progress. What to Expect RSVP and please arrive 10–15 minutes early to get settled at an in-person event. Our host will lead introductions and then everyone will write for a quiet, focused period of time. Afterward, we’ll have an optional time to chat and get to know each other. Members often talk about their successes and challenges as writers. Our events are a safe space for writers to work on their craft. No one will read or critique your writing. Being Late is Okay: Just show up and get settled, then check in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you are on time, please be willing to make room for any friendly latecomers. What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the library's ambient noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons.
