Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington.
The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.
Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine.
Weโll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you.
The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly.
Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome.
The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit.
Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for allโthe venue can be busy at times.
Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have.
Happy writing!
Board games at The Forge
The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~$20 per person. Soft drink refills are $1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group!
The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play.
Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes.
We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area.
Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.

Sunday Social Walk + Optional Topgolf
# Stop Scrolling. Start Living.
Sometimes the best way to meet new people is simple **get out of the house and do something in real life.**
With spring weather still unpredictable, weโre keeping this one simple **weโll be walking indoors at Polaris.**
**Most people who attend come alone โ this is a casual social walk designed to meet new people.**
No awkward networking. No pressure.
Just walking, talking, and good company.
Whether you're new to the group or a regular, this is a great way to **get some steps in, meet new people, and do something different on a Sunday afternoon.**
Location
**Polaris Fashion Place**
**Meeting Spot:** Outside or just inside **"Dicks Main entrance"** from parking lot
Look for the **Meetup sign and green or gold wristbands.**
## The Plan
**2:15 PM โ Meetup / Check-in**
Arrive, say hello, meet a few people, and get checked in.
*The first 15 minutes are usually the best time to meet people before we start walking.*
**2:30 PM โ Walk Starts (Sharp)**
Weโll begin a **casual indoor social walk around Polaris Mall.**
by the end of the hour we should be near 3 miles approx. 6k steps
**\~3:30 PM โ Walk Ends**
Anyone who wants to keep the fun going can join us for Topgolf.
## Optional Activity After
Weโll head over to **Topgolf**
No golf experience needed โ **beginners welcome.**
Lets see your best Happy Gilmore swing!!!
***
## RSVP / Cost
To reduce no-shows and keep events sustainable:
**$2 โ Walk RSVP**
**$15 โ Optional Topgolf add-on**
or **$17 TOTAL**
Topgolf is **limited to the first 6 paid players per bay.**
If the first bay fills, Iโll open another lane if enough people want to join.
**To keep group sizes manageable and reduce no-shows, this event is limited to paid attendees. RSVP alone does not reserve a spot.**

Comment **โPaidโ** on the event or message me so I can confirm your spot.
**Important**
RSVP alone **does not guarantee a spot.**
Paid attendees receive:
โข Event wristband
โข Guaranteed Topgolf spot (if purchased)
โข Inclusion in group activities
## Why These Events Exist
Wise Unlimited events exist to help people:
โข meet new friends
โข get off their phones
โข do more things in real life
Too many people want to go do things but **donโt want to go alone.**
This solves that.
**Stop scrolling. Start doing stuff.**
Conversacion en espaรฑol (en persona)
While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome!
Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many donโt RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here.
Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings.
"The Enchanted Greenhouse" by Sarah Beth Durst
Come join us for coffee at Matari Coffee to discuss our March book, "The Enchanted Greenhouse"!
Book description:
Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium.
This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. Sheโs starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakesโat least until sheโs ready to sail home.
But Terlu canโt return home and doesnโt want toโthe greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failingโcausing the death of everything within themโTerlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again.
This time, though, she isnโt alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the islandโand have a fresh chance at happiness and love.
Sunday Afternoon Coffee @ Porterโs Coffee House 194 W. Church St. Pickerington

Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM.
It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
Friday night social: Let's go to scene 75!
Weโre heading back to Scene75 on Friday, March 27 for a high-energy night of laser tag, mini golf, go-karts, arcade games, and whatever chaos we decide to get into.
Weโve done this one before and it was a blast โ great turnout, tons of laughs, and just the right mix of competition and hanging out. If you missed it last time, this is your shot.
๐ฏ What to Expect:
Laser tag battles
Mini golf challenges
Go-karts (for those who need speed)
Arcade games & game cards
You can load however much youโd like onto a game card. Most people will probably be good with $15โ$30, but itโs totally up to you.
This is a super casual event โ show up, jump into whatever looks fun, rotate groups, and hang out. No pressure, no complicated structure. Just a solid Friday night with good people.
Alsoโฆ I havenโt hosted in a bit and Iโm making a push to be more active again. If youโve got ideas for future events youโd love to do, bring them. Iโm all ears.
Letโs run it back. ๐ฅ
