**Let's escape the hustle and bustle of Jakarta with a late afternoon stroll through Senayan GBK Park and make some new friends along the way!** Senayan GBK Park is located in the heart of the city and is a nice place to visit and explore. Starting from Entrance 7 (Pintu 7), we will walk around and through the park and then over to Senayan Park Complex. Afterwards, we'll go to Lucy in the Sky at Spark, located on the rooftop of Senyan Park Mall for some refreshing drinks and food. This last part is optional for people who want to go. The walk will be a casual stroll around several connecting parks. The walk will take approximately 1:30 hours. We will meet just outside Entrance 7 near the main road. Please be on time, as once we start the walk it will be very difficult to locate us. However, we will post the live location on the WhatsApp Group chat. This is a fun and social event, and everyone is encouraged to get to know each other and make new friends. **📢 IMPORTANT: Attendance Reconfirmation Required** To ensure accurate headcounts and reduce no-shows, we're implementing an updated reconfirmation system for all events. **Here's how it works:** * All events start with unlimited RSVPs. * 4 days before each event, a reconfirmation form will be posted in the event comments and shared in the WhatsApp group. * You must reconfirm ASAP by submitting the form.

Have you ever wondered how you could make money as a writer? You dream of being more independent or taking the next steps, but don't know how? Or you are trying to find an audience willing to pay for your words? Then this **WORKSHOP on CROWDFUNGING you own WRITING PROJECTS** is exactly for you! **🤑💰😎** This workshop have limited seats available**. Reserve your spot today!** **ABOUT THE EVENT** Let's face it: making money as a writer isn't easy. 😢 Here, I'll will present strategies and experiences with **CROWDFUNDING** so that you, too, can get (financial) wind in your writing career! 😀💸🤩 I will give a presentation of financies strategies on two platforms: **KICKSTARTER** and **PATREON** based on my own succesful project which has raised more than 10,000 USD last year on [Kickstarter "The Dessert that Changed the World"](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jens-notroff/the-dessert-that-changed-the-world). I will also talk about my recently launched [Patreon page](https://www.patreon.com/corradonai) which is off to a great start. The focus will be on my own (science) writing, but you will learn tools applicable to raising funds for ***any*** writing. From this workshop you will get away with is and plans for *your own* writing project. You will gain plenty of ideas, inspirations and suggestions that can be used on *any* projects, genres, mediums, plans you are developing, and crowdfunding platforms you want to explore. After a presentation (about 30-45 minutes) about crowdfunding, focussing on what worked well, and what didn't work that well, we will have a practical exercise, a group discussion, and there will be time for questions. At the end of the presentation, everyone will be prompted to prepare a short plan and pricing of their (mock) public facing crowdfunding campaign. You will be asked to answer the following questions: What products you'd like to offer as reward to supporters? How would you price them? What other strategies could you use to get succesfully funded? What are your goals? After about 20-30 minutes of work on your assignment, we will discuss together (some) of the plans presented by attendees. For any questions not answered in the project description, feel free to post a comment in the event page. We have organised this event before, as well as plenty of other workshops... take a look! * **[ABC of CROWDFUNDING](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/events/310560709/)**[ (Workshop) 🤑💰😎 How to fund your WRITING PROJECTS!](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/events/310560709/) * [Workshop: how to craft the perfect logline 📝 with Jakarta Writers](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-writers/events/313460242) * [Introduction to SCREENWRITING for FILM & TV 🎞️🍿 with Jakarta Creatives](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-writers/events/311945504/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=share-btn_savedevents_share_modal&utm_source=link&utm_version=v2&member_id=428578398) * [How to SELF-PUBLISH & build an AUDIENCE as a writer 💪👏 with Jakarta Creatives](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/events/311773715/) * [Fun Writing Challenge (July 2025)](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/events/308515579/) * [Writers' Club (May 2025)](https://www.meetup.com/jakarta-creatives/events/307536966/) * [Shut!
