Shut Up & Write! SoMA SF
- Dec 2, 2013 · 8:00 PM
You will see progress in your writing project by spending the minimum of a single hour per week on it. This is your practice/focus time, so we hope to see you there.
Join other writers for an hour and a half of focused writing!
Please note that we are extending our session by a half hour!
8:00 - Get set up, get a bite to eat and/or something to drink.
8:10 - Introductions and get down to business
9:40 - Brief Check-in
People can continue to work, chat, or take off as they like. Crossroads is open till 10 pm.
If you're spending too much time THINKING about writing, come and join us for a session of focused writing. It may just be "pipe-cleaning" for now, but you'll feel better showing up at the page. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice.
PLEASE NOTE: NO BASEBALL GAME TONIGHT!
LOCATION INFORMATION: There is only one electrical outlet, so make sure your laptop battery is fully charged. There is no Wi-Fi at Crossroads. The radio is occasionally distracting for some, bring your iPod/earplugs if you need to block out distraction.
Quote of the Week: "Writing is hard, even for authors who do it all the time." ~ Roger Angell

Sorry, I have to miss tonight's meeting. It's not by choice. Everybody spin that straw into gold. Hope to be there next time.

Save the date, save the pastry and save the faith. Here are eight crazy reasons to attend a Hannukah SU&W session.
1. Get a latke work done.
2. Write a menorah miracle.
3. Don't let those great ideas go down the driedel.
4. Gimel a couple of pages, that's all we ask.
5. Gelt down, gelt back up again.
6. Olive it up.
7. Light up the darkness.
8. Kwanza dig it?Puttin' the "Ha" back in Hannukah, whether you're a He-bro or a gently used gentile. Everybody's welcome during the upcoming Festival of Lights to be a scribe for the Tribe.
Hey, it's a gift and one you don't have to wait until sunset to unwrap and start using.
See everybody next Monday, come and be a Maccabee Mac Daddy. Chocolate coin anyone?November 24, 2013
