Rosendale Recreation Commission’s “Shut up and write” Writers’ group
The Rosendale Recreation Commission announces the launch of its new writers’ group, “Shut Up and Write!” The program is part of an international community movement that offers writers of all genres, levels, and backgrounds a distraction-free, structured environment to work on their respective projects side-by-side. No critiques. No sharing. No pressure. Just focused writing time alongside others doing the same. After the session, participants can stick around to chat, connect, and build a writing community. The group, led by Walter “Snapper” Earl, will meet, 6-7:30 p.m. every other Thursday, (with the next session on Nov. 12), at the Rosendale Community Center, free of charge. For more information and to RSVP email clovebook@snapurl.blog or call the Town of Rosendale Recreation Office at 845-658-8198.
