Join us for an hour of writing!

Book, blog, script, dissertation, melody, work stuff - whatever you're writing, you're invited to write it with us. Don't just think about writing, get some writing done.

This event is in person at Professor Java's in Albany.

To participate, you will need:

• whatever you use to work on your writing (laptop, paper and pencil, etc.)

—————————————————————

Schedule:

6:15-6:30pm - Introductions.

6:30-7:30pm - Shut Up and Write! We'll start a timer for 1 hour. This is a quiet hour, there should only be keyboard clicking and pen scribbling. The event host will announce when there are 5 minutes remaining, and when the hour is up.

7:30-8:00 pm - Chat. Feel free to keep writing, or stay to chat. Professor Java's closes at 9:00.

General Guidelines:

• Be respectful.
• Being late is OK! Just show up, get settled, and start writing.
• Leaving early is OK! Feel free to step out whenever you need to, no explanation needed.

Other Considerations:

• Look for someone with the Shut Up & Write! sign, if you don't see us, ask around.
• We try to find seating that accommodates the whole group together, but depending on availability and group size, this may not be possible.
• If you are on time, please be willing to make room/ adjust tables and chairs for possible latecomers.
• WiFi and Outlet availability is not guaranteed. Charge your device beforehand, and bring a local or hard copy of your work just in case.
• If we are meeting at a business, please thank our hosts by purchasing something. Remember, we are guests in any space we occupy.
