Stuck on a writing project? Join us every first Sunday to get your creativity flowing in this laid-back workshop.

Though we start out with guided writing time using prompts, this is is primarily a feedback workshop. We will be discussing our works-in-progress and getting/receiving feedback on our pieces. In order to participate, please join our What's App chat and submit your piece by May 26th: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EBV6qBFQomSCaNZ5iyOSH3

We will start with a short writing session guided by a prompt. Then we will dedicate an hour to providing feedback. The goal is to encourage giving and receiving feedback as well as inspiration from others.

We meet in the upstairs “Sala dos Livros” at Rota do Chá. Please head to the courtyard then up the exterior stairs to find us.

*How to submit your work for feedback: The link for the draft folder will be sent to those who RSVP for this event via Meetup. Upload a draft in the folder for the group to review before the event. Additional guidelines in the chat description above.*

Please reserve your spot, seating is limited.
