Shut Up & Write hosts free in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. Our goal is to ensure that every writer, regardless of genre or skill level, has access to the community, accountability, and resources they need to be successful in their personal writing goals. Our events use our proven formula: a few minutes of introductions, an hour of focused writing, and a final check-in to share the hour's progress.

**SCHEDULE:**
Tuesday: First Tuesday of the month
6:30 p.m. - Quick introductions
6:45 p.m.- Timer starts: write for 1 hour
7:45 p.m.- The End: chat, take off, or keep writing (Starbucks is open until 9 p.m.)

**WHAT TO EXPECT:**
RSVP and please arrive **10–15** minutes early to get settled at an in-person event. Our host will lead introductions, and then everyone will write for a quiet, focused period of time.

Afterward, we’ll have an optional time to chat and get to know each other. Members often talk about their successes and challenges as writers. Our events are a safe space for writers to work on their craft. No one will read or critique your writing.

**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 are on time, please be willing to make room for any friendly latecomers.

**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block ambient music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

**Other Important Details:**
TRAVEL / PARKING: Plenty of parking.
SEATING INFORMATION: Large community table or smaller tables.
GUIDELINES: [DETAILS ABOUT FOOD/DRINKS]. Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.
