SUMMARY:Discussion Group at The Royal Oak - Kent at Slater
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person at The Royal Oak – Kent at Slater in Centretown for our monthly writing discussion! \nTo find us: from the front entrance\, walk past the entire bar\, and then make a slight right. We sit in the area at the back\, usually in the long booth-seating section along the windowed back wall. You can ask the staff; they’re familiar with us! \nPlease register via Eventbrite so we know how many people to expect. \nThis month’s discussion will be ✷Deciding What to Write Next✷ \nWe often find ourselves with more ideas than time so how do we decide what projects to invest ourselves into? Does it make sense to start a new project while you’re in the middle of an existing one? Is it as simple as following your interests in any given moment? \nWriters of all genres\, mediums\, and skill levels are most welcome at the table. Come join us for an hour or two! \nThere will be a Write-In afterwards at a nearby café\, so if you would like to join\, you are welcome to bring your writing implements with you and walk over with us after the discussion.

SUMMARY:Centretown Write-In at Haus of Chaa
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person at Haus of Chaa in Centretown for a Write-In session featuring 20 minute sprints! \nMeet us in the basement (stairs are at the back of the room). \nWe’ll be taking little breaks to chat about what we’re working on or workshop narrative tangles between each sprint. Bring a WIP or some ideas as well as your writing implement(s) of choice! Feel free to write\, edit\, or brainstorm. There is no pressure to produce anything during the 20 minute sprint sessions\, we just ask that you keep to yourself and not talk to your fellow writers during those focus periods. We recommend bringing music or noise-cancelling earbuds/headphones if you think it would help you focus! \nIf you’re using a laptop\, please try to come with it already charged as we won’t know ahead of time if we will have any power outlets available for our group to use. \nLook for a little Writers of Ottawa sign at a table if it’s your first time joining us. \nCan’t wait to write with you!
