Olympia / Lacey / Tumwater in-person writing session

In-person writing session at the cafe at The Grange Starbucks off Yelm Highway in Tumwater. We're a supportive and friendly group that welcomes writers of all backgrounds and skill levels.

WHAT WE'LL DO:

Our goal is to get writing done. We'll start with a brief hello and writing project check-ins. Then we'll clock 50 minutes of writing time. We don't offer a prompt. People work on all kinds of projects - or even simply write in journals.

After the writing time is up, you can stick around and volunteer to read what you wrote, or listen to others. We try to keep readings under 7 or so minutes each, with another 10 minutes or so for people to respond.

We're not a hard-core critique group. Feedback focuses on what people thought or felt when they heard your work. Some may offer simple suggestions strengthening works. We're a positive, encouraging group. Some writers have published many books, while others are not yet ready to actually call themselves a "writer" out loud. Regardless of where you are in your writing journey, you will be valued and find value in this gathering. New members and drop-ins always welcome.

Please note, RSVP counts may not be accurate. This event is shared across multiple meetups. Kelsye will always be writing at the table even if there are no visible RSVPs.
