Shut Up & Write!® with Chré

NOTE: In June and half July we go from biweekly to WEEKLY Mondays. This might be temporary, just trying it out until 14 July. After that we'll see.

Join us every or every other Monday for two hours of writing (ONLINE). It can be strikingly helpful to write with other writers. 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.

This Shut Up & Write is hosted from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, but has international attendees from all over Europe and the world. Most attendees are creative writers, who are writing short stories, novels, poetry or memoir. However if you’re gasping for some focussed writing time on other stuff (a blog, an article etc.) feel free to join us.
Also we offer a space for writers of all skill levels to work on their craft. So whether you are a seasoned writer or a beginner who aspires to write and wants to explore the craft, you are most welcome.

Being a writer we sometimes can lose track of time or we might manipulate time altogether in our stories. However for this Shut Up & Write we do follow a SCHEDULE.

SCHEDULE (CET/ Amsterdam Time!)
10:30 Welcome and quick introductions.
10:40 Writing for 50 minutes (~ 1st hour)
11:30 Short break: everybody can share how the writing went.
11:45 Writing 2nd hour (60 minutes)
12:45 End of session. Short round, everybody can briefly share how they did.
BEING LATE IS OKAY. Just check in in the chat and start to write on your own project until the break.
Of course you can also leave early or check in during the break.

SOME IMPORTANT DETAILS:
- This is not a writing class!
- Keep in mind that Shut Up & Write events is about doing the writing, so we don’t share what we’ve written or critique each other.
- Shut Up & Write offers a safe space for both experienced as aspired writers. Please be respectful to your fellow attendee and don’t give unsolicited advice.
