Shut Up & Write!® in NW 21st Neighborhood

Meet writers in your area! *PLEASE NOTE: We have officially moved to Kaleido Coffee on the corner of NW Quimby St and NW 21st Ave. The coffee shop is located just inside the Q21 Apartments building.* Join us for some focused writing time. All writers (poets, novelists, screenwriters, memoirists, podcasters, nonfiction writers) and all experience levels are welcome. These sessions are about getting words down on paper and meeting fellow word smiths! When you arrive, take some time to say hello and chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, there will be quick introductions and then the timer will be set for our hour long writing session! Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other more. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries, we'll see you next time! A note about the format We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.
