Shut Up & Write! Eindhoven

Join us for some focused writing time! This session is about providing a safe and calm space so that you can get your writing done. Whatever you are working on (be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, job application, melody, poem, or just plain, everyday work stuff) you are invited to write with us, in a supportive space where no one will see what you have written or give you unsolicited advice.
When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once we’re all settled, we will have some quick introductions and set our goals for the session. Then, we will set a timer for 60 minutes of quiet and focused writing. After the session, you are welcome to quickly mention how it went (please, no reading/sharing writing aloud!), or also to stay longer for a chat and get to know other participants. If you don’t have time to stick around, that's totally fine, too!
A few practical guidelines:

• Please thank our hosts by purchasing something to drink and/or eat.
• There aren't enough power sockets for everyone, so if you use any electronic writing devices, it is advisable to come with them fully charged.
• The meeting will be held in English, but please feel free to write in any language.
• Being late is ok: just show up and get settled, then check-in with us after the session (we will have a "Shut Up & Write!" sign).
• The venue has free wifi: the password is available by the counter.
• Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the lounge’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.
• Please RSVP at least a day in advance, so that I can reserve enough sitting space for everyone attending.
• I have a small dog who may join us sometimes: if you feel uncomfortable about it, please let me know in advance.
