Berkeley Shut Up & Write!™ Marathon
Details
Start the weekend productively by joining fellow writers for a marathon writing session. If you're spending too much time thinking about writing, come by any time for up to 6 hours of focused writing!

-
Please arrive early to get a seat with the group. We don't have to sit together but most folks find it helpful, even if everyone is working in silence.
-
Order something from Mo'Joe. Drinks, snacks, and lunch are reasons for them to let us keep using their space. There are healthy options.
-
If you arrive during a writing session, do not disrupt the writing flow. Start writing and join the group for the next check-in (12pm, 2pm, or 4pm).
-
If you can't make it, please RSVP "No" as soon as possible. Late RSVP changes can prevent eager writers from attending past overly subscribed Marathons!
