45:15 — A Communal Writing Experience

“For the first 45 minutes…you do nothing but write. Then, no matter where you are at the forty-five-minute mark, you get up.” — Ellen Sussman

45:15 is inspired by writer Ellen Sussman’s system for disciplined and generative writing practice!

For three rounds, participants will write silently for 45 minutes and then take a 15-minute break to grab a drink, browse our bookstore, and chat with each other! Happy hour (5 – 7pm) at our bar to follow! $2 off cocktails; $1 off beer and wine. This event starts promptly at 2pm and has a first-come, first-seated policy. An RSVP does not guarantee entry. We encourage you to bring your laptop fully charged, as the auditorium does not have power points.
