Shut Up & Write!® Night Owls at THE ALLEY CAT

About this event

Join us for an hour of writing!

It can be amazingly helpful to write with other writers. Accountability is an ally of productivity.

See if it’s true for you at 9:30pm on Wednesday evenings at THE ALLEY CAT...

...be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, poem, or just plain work stuff, you're invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.

SCHEDULE

• 9:30pm - Everyone starts to arrive and get settled

• 9:45pm-ish – Quick intros

• 10:00pm – Timer starts and the writing hour begins

• 11pm – The end of the writing hour is announced

Optional socializing happens after 11pm, until the cafe closes at midnight.

Writing is very solitary, so connecting and commiserating with other writers can be a great thing.

Being late is okay—just show up and get settled. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.

VENUE INFORMATION

• Outlets are limited, so make sure your laptop or other device is fully charged before you arrive

• Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block out the overhead music or the conversation by other patrons

• WiFi is free and available within the building

Your focus determines your reality.
