✍️ 3 in-person writer meetups this upcoming week in LA + SF -- are you coming?

Meet your people at our in-person events for writers and creatives! PLUS: a call for submissions for a live reading we're organizing in SF.

Hey writers!

We’ve got THREE events happening this upcoming week and we’d love to see you at one (or all) of them.

Here’s what’s coming up on our events calendar:

✍️ Co-Working & Coffee Writer Meetup — Los Angeles

📅 Tuesday, April 7 | 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM

📍 North Hollywood

Calling all LA writers! Come spend a couple hours co-working, chatting, and meeting fellow freelancers and creators in The Valley. No agenda, no programming — just good company and good coffee. The first 10 to arrive get a coffee on us. ☕

🎁 Paid subscribers only

✍️ Co-Working & Coffee Writer Meetup — San Francisco

📅 Friday, April 10 | 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM

📍 The Marina, San Francisco

Bay Area writers, this one’s for you! Same vibe as LA — bring your laptop or notebook and work on whatever’s on your plate. We’ll be there, the coffee will be there, and so will your people. First 10 through the door get a coffee on us. ☕

🎁 Paid subscribers only

🌿 Creatives ONLY Social Club Picnic — Presidio, San Francisco

📅 Saturday, April 11 | 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM

📍 Main Parade Lawn, Presidio of San Francisco

🎟️ Tickets: $15

This one is open to ALL creatives — writers, photographers, painters, musicians, potters, filmmakers, collage girlies, you name it. If you care deeply about some form of creative expression, you belong here.

We’re kicking off the very first Creatives ONLY Social Club with a picnic on the Presidio lawn. Light bites and non-alcoholic drinks are covered. Bring yourself, bring a snack to share, bring your sketchbook. Come meet your people.

We can’t wait to see some of your faces this week. If you’re in Los Angeles or San Francisco, come say hi — we love getting to know you and your writing!

💡 Plus: are you interested in being a featured writer for our live Substack reading event in San Francisco?

Want to get up on a stage and do a live reading of a short story or featured essay you’ve written? We’re tentatively planning a live reading event in May and want to see which writers would be interested in being featured.
