yuletide | Yuletide Writing Meetups 2018

Do you want to write companionately, have in-person word wars, or commiserate about Bears with other Yuletiders?

Comment here with your general location and whether you want to organize or attend writing meetups!

--

I'm in Boston, and I'm organizing a weekly/every-other-weekly writing meetup. Currently looking at alternating-ish Saturdays and Sundays in Porter Square and downtown (see below for more info).

Last year, meeting in a coffee/food-type place in Porter Square on Sunday afternoons (~1 or 2pm-ish) worked well for many of us. I know that there are Boston/South Shore-type folks who found Somerville a trek, so please let me know if you know a good location in downtown/etc, so we can alternate between the two. I don't know downtown very well, so I need some help here :)

Please let me know if you'd prefer a non-weekend time, and if you'd be willing to organize those, since I'm not available most weekdays (including weekday evenings).

Please also let me know about any accessibility needs (mobility, public transit, financial, sensory, etc).

Looking forward to it!

Anyone in the area interested?

Sure, though I moved even further north so going too far south would be a pain. I'm down for weekends and around the week of Thanksgiving.

Potentially interested in a Seattle meeting, especially if the location is accessible by bus or light rail. Thanksgiving week would be great!

I'm down for Seattle area, though closer to the city is better for me than far from it.

Sorry for my long absence! It sounds like the Saturday after Thanksgiving would work best for everyone?

Does anyone have any suggestions for where to meet? If not, I know Wayward Coffeehouse might make for a good meeting place.

Does anyone have a preference for a time? I'm thinking late morning/early afternoon but I'm flexible.

That would work! It might be a bit loud on a Sunday- I’m not sure. Anyone been there at the weekend? If people like, I could look into getting a meeting room at the library.

Edit: Nope, library is booked that day!

Saturday after Thanksgiving works great for me. I'm fine with meeting anywhere I can get to with public transit.

Correction! The Capitol Hill Branch of the library had an open meeting room from noon - 4pm on Sat 11/24. That's right next to the light rail station. It has tables, chairs, a sink, and wi-fi. I put in a sign-up. Hopefully it will be approved. Let me know if y'all would prefer the coffee shop.

Capitol Hill library works great for me!

Did this get approved? If so, I’ll plan on being there at noon tomorrow!

If not, I’ll meet whoever wants to be there at the coffee shop at about noon.

Yes, it was approved. See you there!

Since the meetup today was such a success, I signed up for the same location from 10AM-1PM on December 8th. We'll see if it gets approved.
