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.

ABOUT THE EVENT
Join other writers for an hour of focused writing!No restrictions on genre, length, or writing stage, and no readings or critique, just an hour of writing with maybe some banter around the edges.
This online meeting is a holdover from the pandemic meets, to maintain connections with the friends we've made along the way.
This meeting is using the new SU&W online video capability, so you will need an account on the Shut Up & Write site.

- Shut Up & Write! In Gold River2220 Gold Springs Ct, Gold River, CA
Our goals: Meet fellow writers and authors in a relaxed setting. Designate a time to get some writing done. Get a bite to eat or a drink. Let creative energy flow.
What to expect: Bring your writing implements of choice. We meet at Mountain Mike's Pizza (2220 Gold Springs Court near Sunrise Blvd. and Gold Express Dr.) around 5:30 PM, get settled with some great food or beverage, and start introductions by 5:45. Each writer gives a brief description of their project and goals. We write until 7:00 and do a quick check-in, each person reports on their progress. Discussions centered on writing may follow.
Keep in mind: Shut Up & Write is always free, however, participants are encouraged to purchase food or drink at Mountain Mike's. We want the venue to be happy we are there.
