❓FAQs

  • Can I just join for 1 hour, or do I need to join all 24 hours? You're welcome to join however many hours you like. Just make sure to arrive at the top of the hour for the full experience.

  • What's the format of each hour? ​​​​​Here's how each of the 24-Hours will run, starting at the top of each hour:

    • :00 – Writers' Hour begins

    • :01 to :05 – Host greets everyone and you’ll set your focus for the hour.

    • :05 to :50 –We'll write together in silence

    • :50 – Brief checkout

    • :55 – 5 min break before the next hour

  • What do I need to bring for the sessions? Bring a current work-in-progress writing project, whether that's on your computer or in your notebook. Not sure what to work on? Try 'Morning Pages' style stream-of-consciousness journaling.

  • Will I be sharing my work with other writers? Each hour will be focused time to work on your own writing project. While we'll encourage you to share a line in the Zoom chat about what you're working on, you'll be working in silence on your own project, side by side with other writers working on theirs.

  • What's the cost to attend? It's free! This is a celebration of writing and creativity and we'd love for you to join us and write. However if you get value out of it you're welcome to make a donation, or become a Member of London Writers' Salon.
