*"Put your ear down close to your soul and listen hard."*
Anne Sexton

Saturday night has magic: the portals to the unconscious open, the muse is afoot, anything can happen.

Be it a poem or dissertation, journaling or nonfiction, memoir, novella or screenplay, join us for 90 minutes of focused creation. All writers and all experience levels are welcome, and don’t worry; no one will see what you've written. There are no read-alouds, sharing or critiques. This session is about getting your writing done.

Format (listings are Pacific Daylight Time; convert as appropriate):

**6:30 pm:** Introductions. State your location and a laconic, generic sentence or two about your intentions for the next 90 minutes. (E.g., *“I’m in Miami. I’m wallowing in the second act miasma.” “I’m in Bangkok. I’m revising an impossible chapter in my dissertation that strives logically to resolve contradictory findings.”*)

**6:45 pm:** Session begins. Everyone is muted by the host to minimize distractions. If you arrive late, just put your intentions in the chat and then plunge into your work. If you need to leave early, likewise, just put your progress in the chat and sail off into the night…

**8:15 pm:** Session ends. 15 minutes of check-out—how did you do? Here is where we celebrate even a nanometer of advancement! All that happened was 90 minutes of woolgathering? Get on with your bad self!!!

**8:30 pm:** Your host will end the Zoom. Feel free to continue writing, or via messenger, carry on a conversation with event participants.

To our Asian and Down Under friends, set the week’s tone with Sunday morning furtherance of what you were put on this earth to do. Affirm once again who you really are: a writer.

*“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you.”*
Maya Angelou

NB: At this event, we honor the Tongva, the First People of the land now called Los Angeles. We reverently invite their ancestral spirits to guide us on our path, and thank them most gratefully for their gifts of illumination.

Shut Up & Write!® on Zoom - SATURDAY NIGHT PROLIFICOS

Online event

Host: Dyi

NOTE: this is an 'as and when' one hour of silent writing (9-10am UK; 10-11am CET) before the regular 10am UK Sunday morning SU&W starts - that is, it is on when Dyi can make it (and not when Dyi can't make it). After a very brief introduction, you can check-in and check-out in the chat if you want to (or not) - there are no 'vocal introductions'. For the rest: write with your coffee & breakfast (or dinner) ready :). After this 60min session, you can hop onto/stay for the next SU&W session! (Note that the session after this one has various hosts, so always double check who the host is.) As always, arrive/leave when you need to.

*Note: some regular attendees save the login details, so even if no one registered here, there will be folks!*

**Online coworking for writers!**
Join us for a period of focused writing from the comfort of your own home. All writers and all experience levels are welcome, and don’t worry; no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done.

**What to Expect**
We’ll spend the first 5 minutes settling in as people arrive, and then I will lead quick introductions. Then it's time for our quiet & focused period of writing. After the timer goes off, we’ll finish with a quick check-in to see how everyone's writing went. Then, stick around and chat for a bit, or feel free to head out.

Who?
Sometimes it will just be the moderator, and sometimes it will be 5 or more people. We are fiction and nonfiction writers. Some write Dungeons and Dragons Campaigns, some write blogs, and others are writing novels. Sometimes it’s just the moderator. Bring a friend.

What?
Write until you’ve got 2 thousand words if you want a challenge. If not… just come with your own project.

When?
Sessions will be held on Sunday at 6AM Pacific, 8AM Central, and 9AM Eastern. We will start writing at 8:10.

Where?
Virtual on a platform called 8x8

Why?
Because writing well takes practice.

How?
There are two writing sessions of 45 minutes each.
We turn off our cameras and mics while we’re writing unless you need to keep your camera on for accountability.
