Spacebar: write and share in community – August

What is Spacebar? Spacebar is designed for anyone who writes, from complete amateurs to established aficionados, to create in community, connect, and share with like-minded peers. The literary events we meet at–panels, book launches, and festivals–often showcase polished, finished works, but the writing process is far less glamorous. It can be lonely and plagued with self-doubt. Spacebar offers no quick fixes, but it provides a supportive environment where writers can gather, be mutually inspired, and navigate the beautiful challenges of your craft together. Join our monthly sessions to connect with a community that embraces the raw and vulnerable act of creating. Details Spacebar takes place from 12pm to 5pm and offers writers a regular space to focus on their craft. There is no instructor, and you are free to come and go as you like. Bring your own physical and/or digital writing materials, including charging devices if required. You will have opportunities to meet and mingle with others during the session.
