Fantasy Writing

English text below Запазете датата! Ще си задаваме занимателни гатанки, ще хапваме премазни гозби от бара и ще спекулираме за бъдещето на човечеството. Този път централната ни тема е изкуственият интелект - но няма да се ограничаваме само до това, а ще се поизпитаме и по другите ни интересни теми, като биология, физика, философия, религия... и по малко гастрономия. Програма: 19:30 Meet & greet, формиране на отбори, опознаване на асортимента на бара 20:00 Начало на играта - 2 кръга (поне! може и бонус) 22:00 Награждаване и забава Отборите са оптимално от 3 до 6 души, който си няма достатъчно - можем да сформираме отбори на място. Въпросите варират по трудност, ще има по нещо за всеки. Имали сме участници и на 9г, които не бяха на нула точки, така че и вие ще уцелите все нещо - а по-напредналите също не са се оплаквали, че им е скучно. Правилата ще обясним на място, стандартната пъб куиз процедура - всяка маса е отбор и получава листче, на което пише отговорите и накрая на кръга го предава. Освен почестването на мозъчетата и забавленията Църквата иска да ни осигури малко агитация да сме по-заинтересовани в бъдещето на нашата цивилизация и да сме по-активни при насочването му. Искаме бъдещето на света да се решава все повече от мислещи хора, като събралите се тук, от колкото традиционните ни морални авторитети. Бумът на AI технологиите е повод да преосмислим някои социални ценности и смятаме, че пастафарианците заслужават място около масата повече от колкото брадатите ни колеги. Save the date! We will ponder entertaining riddles, eat noodly treats from the bar and speculate about the future of humanity. This time our central topic is artificial intelligence - but we will also cover other interesting topics like biology, physics, philosophy, religion... and a little gastronomy. Agenda: 19:30 Meet & greet, team formation, sampling the bar's selection 20:00 Start of the game - 2 rounds (at least! perhaps a bonus) 22:00 Awards and merriment Optimally form a team of 3 to 6 people, if you don't have enough - we can form teams on the spot. The questions vary in difficulty, there will be something for everyone. We also had 9 year old participants who finished with non-zero score, so rest assured that you will also hit something - and the know-it-alls were not bored either. We'll review the rules in detail during the intro, it's the standard pub quiz procedure - each table is a team and receives a piece of paper on which to write the answers and hand it over at the end of the round. In addition to exercising our brains and having fun, the Church wants to provide us with a little motivation to be more interested in the future of our civilization and to be more active in guiding it. We want the future of the world to be decided more by thinking people, like those gathered here, than by our traditional moral authorities. The boom in AI technologies is an occasion to rethink some social values, and we believe that Pastafarians deserve a place around the table more than our bearded colleagues.

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, April 22 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator.
