Silent Writing Happy Hour is a weekly writers’ workshop where we weekly write.  Taking inspiration from the infinite canon of literature past and present, we offer our platform weekly to a guest scribe, to inspire us with short readings prompting writing exercises, offering space and direction to write silently and hone skills.  Guest scribes then share their work, with others invited to join as the spirit and time dictates. 

“Writing is a solitary pursuit best practiced in a group,” notes SWHH co-host Jamie Hook. “Only thus, through collective efforts and habitual behavior, can be the Animal Spirits be unleashed,” concurs SWHH co-host David Buchbinder.

Writers of all stripes are passionately welcomed. We write silently for the better part of an hour, with breaks for “Inspiration,” (as Barkeeps call it…).
