Shut Up & Write! with QWF (In Person)
Join us for an in-person Shut Up & Write session at the QWF office! Do all that writing you’ve been meaning to do, and meet a few of your fellow QWF members. Using the Pomodoro technique, participants write in 25 minute bursts, with 5-minute breaks in between.
Free
Three Books, Three Authors, Three Journeys of Discovery: Book Signing
A viking queen chooses between survival and destruction. A blues-harp player sets out on a motorcycle ride into the land of myth. And thousands of years in the future, a novice space engineer discovers that the question of gender remains as fraught as ever.
