Weekly co-working and writing club session at Barnaby's Lounge, free but with limited space and registration required.
Writers Cafe is back at Barnaby's Lounge in Hastings on Thursday 5 November, part of its regular run of co-working and writing sessions. It's a simple, recurring thing: every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:00pm to 5:00pm, the lounge opens up as a dedicated space for anyone with a project they're trying to get through.
The format is straightforward. You spend two hours working quietly upstairs, with the room set up for focused, solitary writing rather than a social mixer. Once the clock hits five, you can head downstairs and have a drink. It's a good way to get a solid block of work done in the afternoon and then switch off properly afterwards, rather than letting the day just bleed into the evening.
It's run as a co-working club and writing snug, so it's as much about the company of other people working as it is about the writing itself. You're not there to workshop your pages or read aloud; the point is the quiet, focused stretch of time. If you've been struggling to find a few hours of peace during the week, this is a reliable place to carve them out.
Every week we pick 🏆 the 5 best 🏆 things to do in Hastings and send them to your inbox. Just one weekly email, no spam.

Entry is free, but space is limited, so you'll need to register in advance at https://lu.ma/WritersCafe. The session runs from 3:00pm to 5:00pm, with the drink downstairs as the reward for the two hours of work.
