Literary Devices: Writers and Hackers for Noisebridge!
Sat, Jun 13, 2:00 AMSan Francisco Writers Workshop collaborates with our hacker friends to raise funds for everyone's favorite local makerspace: Noisebridge! Several of our best authors will produce stories/poems/word-based constructs. Each will share their literary product with a hacker, who will respond with a device/app/gadget/doohickey inspired by the writing. On the night of the event, audience members will vote for the device that best complements the assigned writer's piece. The winning hacker will receive a prize of dubious value! Expect delicious snackies, and other fun additions: in the past we've included a fun raffle!

Sit Down and Write
Sun, May 17, 6:00 PMWriters write. And if you haven't written in a room full of writers writing, you haven't lived! It's a nice feeling, at the least. 11:00 a.m. Arrive, find a spot, support our patron by purchasing a beverage and/or snack and tipping well. Then socialize until writing-time begins! A few minutes before, we'll go around the circle introducing ourselves, our writing passions, and our goal for the day. 11:15 a.m. The organizer will start the clock, and for the next 1 hour conversation shall be discontinued as everyone works on whatever writing or reading (or what-have-you) strikes his or her fancy. The key here is a nice, courteous quiet. Headphones are recommended. 12:15 p.m. Writing-time ends. You're welcome to continue writing, resume socializing, hail a cab, do whatever you want, because you're an adult.

Sip and Scribe
Sat, May 30, 6:00 PMStep into an analog morning with Sip and Scribe Society, where we slow down and return to the simple act of creating. From 11am to 1pm, we gather in a calm, welcoming space for one hour of uninterrupted writing whether you’re working on an exciting project or simply exploring self expression in your own way. Bring your notebook, your thoughts, or just your presence. This is open to anyone creative seeking a moment of intention, connection, and quiet inspiration.

StorySlam Oakland: Shady
Thu, May 28, 2:30 AMPayment of $20.52 made directly to EventBrite to link at bottom. StorySlam Oakland is Oakland's longest-running true storytelling show, where people tell short and true stories from their lives. Or just listen and laugh. How it works:The hosts will encourage audience members to shout out ideas for themes. It could be a theme you have a story about, or a theme you want to hear some true stories about. We'll write them down and then the fun begins. You can also take your time between now and the show and craft a story on our pre-announced theme, which is Naughty. Put your name in the hat for a chance to tell your story. We usually have time for about 10 storytellers.We live in some alarming times, no doubt. Sometimes shady stuff is funny, stometimes it's serious. Any story is good as long as it's true, about you, and five to six minutes long. We'll have a timer to keep you on track. Remember, no notes or reading allowed. You'll tell it like you're telling friends around the dinner table.
