# Introduction and Purpose:

Write Together is a two-hour focused writing session that brings writers together to work on whatever project, idea, draft, or creative work they choose. This is not a workshop; there is no instruction, curriculum, or prescribed topic. Participants work independently on whatever they are currently writing, or thinking of writing, for the full duration of the session.

The purpose of Write Together is to provide a regular, scheduled space for writers to carve out intentional time to write, strengthen their writing habits, and connect informally with other writers. Sessions take place fortnightly on Sundays, typically on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month. Attendance is open to all levels and forms of writing/art.

# Agenda:

Arrival & Orientation: Participants are encouraged to arrive a few minutes early. Look for Shankar or Dilshod for a brief orientation to the space and session flow. Venue staff can also direct you to the Write Together area if needed.

Focused Writing Session (2 hours): Writers work quietly and independently on their own chosen projects throughout the session.

Optional Social: The session is typically followed by an informal social at a nearby café or pub. Participation is entirely optional and provides space to connect and converse after the writing period.

# Venue:

We are typically seated at The Botanical Arts Society at Yap Ah Shak. It is an elegant space with greenery and, often, soft classical or jazz music. At times, exhibitions are hosted on the same floor, contributing to a calm and creatively stimulating atmosphere.

# Requirements:

  1. You must write — something, anything. Other forms of creative or expressive work are also welcome.
  2. Please purchase at least one drink from the venue to support the space hosting the session.
