What we’re about
Shut Up & Write! is a global community that empowers writers to overcome procrastination, silence their inner critic, and make consistent progress on their projects. Our events provide a structured and focused environment where writers can come together, set aside distractions, and achieve their writing goals.
What to Expect
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. Once you arrive, 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. Our events are a safe space for writers to work on their craft. No one will read or critique your writing.

Virtual Shut Up & Write!® Groningen on Google Meet
·OnlineOnlineJoin us for an hour of writing from the comfort of your home. We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with others even if we’re all just hanging out online together. See if it’s true for you at 9:30 AM on Fridays ✍🏾.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you're invited to write it with us. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. And, don’t worry, no one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice.
Here is a link to join us on Google Meet: meet.google.com/qkj-fqvq-zqs.
SCHEDULE
9:30 AM - Quick intros: your name, writing project, and writing intentions for today's session.
9:35 AM - Set your own timer and write for 1 hour.
The end: Join the wrap-up, keep writing, or leave.
IMPORTANT
Please, join the session on time. I hope you understand that I want to focus on my writing instead of keeping busy with admitting latecomers 🙏🏾.
DURING THE WRITING PART
Please, mute your microphone. You can leave your camera on or disable it, it's entirely up to you. However, turn your camera on if you want to stay for the wrap-up.
WHAT DO YOU NEED?
A computer with a working camera and microphone, a good internet connection, and, optionally, headphones.
OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS
Technical difficulties are part and parcel of getting together online. If you’ve never used your computer for an online meeting, take a few minutes before we meet to familiarize yourself with Google Meet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGXI0KpkR50.
If you run into technical issues, remember that this is the time you’ve carved out for yourself and your writing ✍🏾💫. Whether or not you were able to join our online meet-up, go ahead and get your writing started, then leave a comment below to let us know how it went for you.4 attendeesVirtual Shut Up & Write!® Groningen on Google Meet
