Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10 am on Monday mornings.

Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.

**SCHEDULE:**
9:45 am - Quick introductions
10:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
11:00 - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11:00. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.

BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at Lakeside Street Coffee House!

**What Should I Bring?**
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.
Please come with your laptop pre-charged -- there are not many plugs available!

**Other Important Details:**
Lakeside Street does have WiFi.
TRAVEL / PARKING: There is street parking available, but please follow all posted signs!
GUIDELINES: Lakeside does serve drinks and food. Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.
