SoA Community Hub | Shut Up & Write! ®

6 November @ 10:00 - 12:30 GMT

Free

Join us this November for a writing focused Community Hub event at our London office on Bedford Row.

Amaia Robertson Nogues from Shut Up & Write! ®, will facilitate a morning of writing. Shut Up & Write! ® is a nonprofit that brings writers together to build consistency, beat procrastination, and finally make progress on their projects.

Whether you’re writing a novel, finishing a dissertation, or tackling daily creative work, our free in-person and online writing sessions connect you with a global network of writers who show up, write, and succeed.

This event is structured around a silent writing period, so remember to bring headphones if you’d like to minimise background noise.

Places are limited and subject to availability.

This event is free to SoA Members. Not a member? Sign up here.
