Get Involved
At Shut Up & Write!, we believe in the power of community and the transformative impact of writing. Here's how you can get involved:
Show Up
The simplest and most impactful way to get involved is to sign up for one of our free writing groups. Whether you prefer in-person groups or online sessions, joining a Shut Up & Write! event helps create a productive atmosphere where everyone can focus. Your presence not only supports your own writing journey but also motivates others to stay committed to theirs.
Organize
If you've benefited from our sessions and want to give back, consider applying to become an organizer. Hosting your own Shut Up & Write! group can be a rewarding experience, whether it's in a coffee shop, a public library, or a convenient online platform like Zoom.
We provide the tools and support you need to make your events successful. Whether you're hosting in-person or online, you'll play a crucial role in helping others turn their writing dreams into reality.

Your financial support is vital to our mission. By making a donation, you help us provide resources, support, and a global platform for writers of all backgrounds. Donations fund:
Operational Costs: Ensuring our events remain free and accessible to everyone.
Resources: Providing materials and tools to enhance the writing experience.
Outreach: Expanding our reach to new communities and underrepresented writers.
Development: Creating new programs and initiatives to support writers at all stages of their journey.
Every contribution, big or small, helps us empower writers, build communities, and change the world through the written word.
