Crowd Writing
I’m a soloist when it comes to writing. It’s not really a group activity for me. Even when it comes to writing copy for work, I need to go off on my own to let the ideas flow. However, I’m in a new city and I want to get out of my apartment and meet some people. What better place to start than meeting other writers?
So, I’ve joined a San Francisco Meetup.com Group called “Shut Up and Write!” A rotating group of hundreds of writers in the Bay Area get together at various cafes for marathon writing sessions. The groups are anywhere from six to twenty writers gathering with laptops and ipods. Every hour or couple of hours they take a short break to socialize, grab a coffee, and share their work. My first meeting is tonight. I’ll let you know how it goes.
