About this event
*Good morning, Sista! Let's write together!* Scribe Sistas is a free, in-person writing circle for Black women writers of all genres and levels. We will meet in cozy spaces in and around Oak Park, IL, because your words deserve a soft place to land. This is not a critique group! No harsh feedback. No tearing each other's work apart. Just sisterhood and focused writing time. **Location:** Panera Bread **What to expect:** * **2:00 PM -** Welcome & brief check-in (tell us what you're working on...no pressure to share your actual words!) * **2:15 PM -** Writing sprint (60 minutes to write anything, any genre) * **3:15 PM -** Optional sharing & encouragement (celebrate wins, no critique) **Bring:** Your laptop, notebook, or whatever you write with. No need to share your work unless you want to. **Cost:** Free Please RSVP so we know you're coming! If plans change, update your RSVP so another Sista can take your spot. *We can't wait to write with you, Sis!*
