What we’re about
Shut Up & Write! is a global community that empowers writers to overcome procrastination, silence their inner critic, and make consistent progress on their projects. Our events provide a structured and focused environment where writers can come together, set aside distractions, and achieve their writing goals.
What to Expect
Our events use our proven formula: a few minutes of introductions, a period of focused writing, and a final check-in to share our progress. Once you arrive, 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. Our events are a safe space for writers to work on their craft. No one will read or critique your writing.

We have decided to keep this group small to keep it intimate. Please attend only if you have signed up. If you have signed up but cannot attend, change your RSVP so someone can take your place. If you are interested in starting and running your own group (it's free to do so), visit the Shut Up and Write website.
Join us for 60 minutes of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10:00 am Sunday mornings.
This session is about getting your writing done (whether you're working on fiction, non-fiction, poetry, essays, or something completely different) and meeting other writers in your area.
When you arrive, say hello to everyone, grab a drink or food from Barnes and Noble. Once everyone’s arrived, we'll have quick introductions and set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. This is not a critique group.
