10:20am SGT - Optional text check-in (and 2nd cup of coffee)

Join us for 3hrs of writing from the comfort of home.

Shut Up & Write hosts free in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. Our goal is to ensure that every writer, regardless of genre or skill level, has access to the community, accountability, and resources they need to be successful in their personal writing goals. Our events use our proven formula: a few minutes of introductions, a period of focused writing, and a final check-in to share our progress.

3pm – Quick intros: what are you working on?
3:15pm – Timer starts: write for 1 hour
4:00pm – Midsession checkin #1: how's it going?
5:00pm – Midsession checkin #2: still going strong?
5:45pm – The End + quick check-in: how did you go?

**What to Expect**

Before your event, please take a few minutes to make sure your video chat setup is working. Once you log in to the meeting, our host will lead introductions and then everyone will write for a quiet, focused period of time.

Afterward, we’ll have an optional time to chat and get to know each other. Members often talk about their successes and challenges as writers. Our events are a safe space for writers to work on their craft. No one will read or critique your writing.

**What do I need?**

A computer with working camera and microphone, a good internet connection, and optionally, headphones.

'FRIDAY NIGHT LIVE' MARATHON with Tupuna SUW WELLINGTON - [drop ins welcome]

**ABOUT THE EVENT**
European time-zone, DAILY morning meeting (Monday-Friday).
Remark: the time of the meeting is always 9am with reference to Vienna-Rome-Amsterdam-Berlin-Madrid-etc... timezone.

We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers.

We generally do 2 consecutive 1-hour sessions, with a break halfway.

Feel free to drop in and drop out whenever necessary: adapt it to your schedule :D !

Only requirement: introduce yourself with the camera turned on (at start, break, final checkpoint, or even in the chat). This fosters a sense of connection and community - just to know who's the fellow in the nearby desk :D

From 9am CET, DAILY!
Time-zone converter: https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/

Each day, whether fiction or non-fiction, whether actually putting down words or doing research and readings for your project: you are one of us!

Signup to get the link of the online meeting.
FYI: there is no waiting room nor the need to create extra accounts for the conferencing tool currently in use + can be accessed through your browser.

PS. these events are not an opportunity to "date": we are friendly collegues and perhaps may become also friends, but all within a non-sexualized environment. Everyone has different boundaries and sensitivities but none should feel uncomfortable.

PPS. avoid communicating with me or others through the event comment sections - this is a measure of politeness since all people participating to the event will get then notified (even through email!) for each of our comments, which in almost all cases are of little relevance to them.
