Shut Up & Write!® in West Queen West [1.5 hrs]

***We are doing 1,5 hours of focused writing time instead of a usual 1 hour. We tried different formats and found that 1.5 hours works best, whereas an hour feels too short.
If you have to leave early, you are still welcome to join but just make sure you leave quietly not disturbing the rest.****

Coworking for writers in your area!
Join me for some focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area.

When you arrive

When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers.

***Please be advised that seats are not reserved and are on a first-come, first-served bases (even if you have RSVP'd). I cannot know ahead of time how many people show up in cafe that day, but usually weekend mornings are on the quieter side. ***

The session
Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session.

Aiming to get started with the hour of quiet writing at around 11.15am. If you are late you are welcome to join us (quietly and not disruptively).

Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries!

A note about the format
We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.
