Write-Along with Veronique Kootstra

23rd June 2025 11:00am to 12:00pm

It can be hard to make time and space to write.

 

That’s why we’ll write with you, side by side. Body doubling, parallel play, writing in community – call it whatever you like, but the results are the same. Writing alongside other people helps you get your head down, focus, and get the stories out of your head.

 

We’ll meet you on Zoom every Monday of the Write A Novel Festival for an hour of writing alongside other awesome writers to help you get going and keep going with your words.

 

What happens at write-along?

 

We all jump on Zoom, have a quick intro, then get writing. Perfect if you struggle to get going, need to some accountability, or just want to escape the solitary binds of a writerly life. This way, you can see that you’ve got a whole big writing community around you and supporting you.
