After a loooong hiatus, Shut Up & Write Poetry is back for Sonic Poetry Festival 2024! This time at a cafe in Moonee Ponds.

The basic concept is just to gather and write poetry. Bring your ideas, your writing tools, your inspiration and your need for proximity with other working inds.

However for this special festival edition, a twist is that poets may wish to spontaneously get up and read their poem! Other writers may or may not outwardly respond but we will all be inwardly appreciative.

As a reminder this isn't a workshop or a meetup so those of us (*cough* *cough*) who are introverted can feel comfortable not having said a word the whole time. Smiles are encouraged.

There is no cost (gold coin donation optional) but please get a drink or food from the venue!
