Shut Up & Write!® Kyoto

【This is an "in-person" event! 】
Note: this time we’re meeting on a Saturday instead of our usual Sunday.

Writing is often a solitary activity. Connecting—and sometimes commiserating—with other writers can make a real difference. Join us for 1.5 hours of focused writing. We’ve found that writing alongside others is surprisingly effective and motivating.
