    Winter Writing Sprints: Wednesday Mornings

    A members-only event


    Start your Wednesday mornings with your fellow FBCW members this winter. Every Wednesday, from 8:00am to 9:00am Pacific, we'll gather on Zoom for a quick check-in followed by quiet writing time. Work on your current project, do your morning pages, or start something new! A new prompt will be provided each meeting for writers who need a push to get going. 

    Your registration includes all 8 Wednesday morning writing sprints in January and February. Sign up once, and then come to as many or as few sprints as you'd like all winter. 


    This event is exclusive to FBCW members. Want to write with us but not yet a member? Add a FBCW membership to your event registration, or find out more about how to join the organization at bcwriters.ca



    Digital Doors Open at 7:55 AM, Event Starts at 8:00 AM Pacific

    SUNRISE SPRINTS with Jenn Sommersby

    Get your lizard brain out of bed, make the coffee, and meet me in the Zoom room. Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 7 a.m. Five minutes of hi/hello/how are you, then we get to work. Write, edit, research—this is 55 solid minutes of time for you and your WIP. Mics off, cameras optional (mine will be off—no one wants to see morning Jenn). SEE YOU THERE!

    Register today to access all morning sessions with Jenn for February and March. We will use the same zoom link for all of these sessions.

    NOTE: There will not be a session on Family Day, February 16th. Further, because this is a series of ongoing sessions, there will not be reminder emails about the individual sessions.

    If you are more of a night owl, we are also running sessions at 5:30 PM Mondays and Fridays.  Register using this link for the evening sessions.

    SUNSET WRITING SPRINTS with Jenn Sommersby

    Put the workday behind you and settle in for a calm hour of you and your imaginary friends. Dinner can wait; feed your soul first. Join me on Mondays and Fridays starting at 5:30 p.m. for an hour-long sprint. Great way to start and finish the week—and maintain your commitment to your writing practice. Write, edit, revise, whatever floats your boat, camper. Mics off, cameras optional, no talky … just words on the page.


    NOTE: This is a series of ongoing sessions, there will not be reminder emails about the individual sessions.
