Shut Up & Write!® hosts free in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. Our goal is to ensure that every writer, regardless of genre or skill level, has access to the community, accountability, and resources they need to be successful 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. 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 write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the venue’s ambient music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Other Important Details: VENUE WIFI NAME/PASSWORD: available at venue TRAVEL / PARKING: free parking available along side roads SEATING INFORMATION: it's a cozy place and you'll see us right away GUIDELINES: The venue has some amazing drink choices.
