Do you spend more time cleaning your kitchen cupboards than writing? Do you spend a lot a time working alone and people have forgotten what you If so, then come and join a weekly Shut Up and Write! Group. The session will be facilitated by Muireann O’Keeffe What shall I bring?: Laptop (or pen/paper – however you like to work), necessary notes, papers, items you need to work. Rules: No speaking to each other during writing time (only at breaks). No Internet or phone usage. Why: The idea is to make the act of writing fun and relaxing by working in social groups gathering together to write. See for more info http://thesiswhisperer.com/shut-up-and-write/
