Details

Want to write in the company of other writers from Madeira Friends?

We’re doing just that, every week. Come and be inspired to complete your work!

Here’s how it works:
6:00 PM Show up at the Madeira Friends Hub, feeling productive and energized! We meet in the main terrace area. Brace yourself for an hour of writing in focused silence.

  • *RSVP and please arrive by 6:00 pm to get settled and set up.* We will introduce ourselves briefly and start promptly at 6:20 pm.
  • 6:20 PM to 7:20 PM: we shut up and write!

7:20 PM: Post-writing chat! We check in with each other for a measure of accountability. We then head out for a post-writing drink and/or dinner. Or head out to get a jump on your other weekly activities.

Sound good?! Join us!

* * * If you are new to the "Shut Up & Write" concept...

Shut Up & Write hosts free in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. Our goal is to ensure that every writer, regardless of genre or skill level, has access to the community, accountability, and resources they need to be successful in their personal writing goals. Our events utilize our proven formula: a few minutes of introductions, an hour of focused writing, and a final check-in to share the progress made during the hour.

What to Expect
*** Please RSVP and arrive 10–15 minutes early to get settled at an in-person event. ****** Our host will lead introductions, and then everyone will write for a quiet, focused period of time.

Afterward, we’ll have an optional time to chat and get to know each other. Members often talk about their successes and challenges as writers. Our events provide a safe space for writers to hone their craft. No one will read or critique your writing.

For more information about our events, visit https://shutupwrite.com.

Being Late is Okay: Just show up and get settled, without interrupting other writers who may be in the zone :-) Check in with me after the session.

**If you RSVP that you will attend and your plans change, please update your RSVP to reflect that you will no longer be attending. ** ** **

What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds or earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s ambient music or the occasional conversation of other patrons.
