The worst thing about the pandemic for us writers is the fact that we can no longer hang out in our favorite coffee establishments, libraries, and book stores. Which is a problem, because many of us are most productive in these places (at least, I know I definitely am). The solution?

Let’s create our own, vibey workspaces!

If you’re interested, keep reading 🙂

The Essentials:

-beverage (tea, coffee, orange juice, etc)

-a desk (even a portable one works well!)

-notebook or laptop, plus pencils

-headphones for music– for this, you can just look up “coffee shop music” on YouTube. It’s very relaxing.

Optional:

-something quirky (for me, I’ll be wearing my “write now” beanie :))

-candles

-low lighting (waiting until it’s dusk and then having a lamp next to you as you write)

-lucky object (like dice)

-A “WRITER AT WORK” sign or locked door, so people know you’re busy!

Now…

If you’re looking for a group to write with, please DM me on Instagram! (@kunkel.sophia) Tell me why you’re interested, what goals you have, and what your favorite books are 🙂

I will be hosting a virtual coffee shop twice a month on Mondays, starting in June, on Instagram Rooms (even if you don’t have Instagram, you can still join)! They will usually be in the evening, but we can take a poll on what times work best for everyone. The maximum is 50 people but I don’t think we’ll get to that point, haha!

Looking forward to meeting y’all!

(First session will be Monday, June 7 at 7pm EST)
