Icebreaker (with coffee!)
Check in, grab a coffee, and join us for some structured conversations to help us get to know each other, our projects, and what we want to get from the weekend. (Join us when you can; we know people will be coming from work, etc.)

Writing Sprints
Stretch your fingers, bench your inner-editor, and keep your eyes on the doc! Compete with yourself and others for word count. This exercise is great to write yourself out of a plot hole, learn about your characters, or even start something new.

Writing Time
Find a cozy space and disappear into your world.

One-on-Ones
Share your doc and get live, unfiltered feedback. We'll pause to fix errors, ask questions, and enhance your craft line by line for 30 minutes.

Mix & Mingle
Make friends with people who understand your passion and your struggles. Who knows, you may even meet a critique partner.
