✍️ Silent Virtual Write-Ins (Drop in anytime!)
• Mondays: 9a–11a CT
• Tuesdays: 10a–12p CT

What is a Silent, Virtual, Drop-In-Anytime Write-In?
SILENT
Microphones are always off, but the chat stays open for community discussions, questions, and connections.
VIRTUAL
We'll meet via Zoom (keep your camera on or off — your choice), working independently-yet-together on our personal writing projects.
DROP-IN ANYTIME
Come for any portion of any session. Come late...leave early... This is YOUR time, even if it's just 20 minutes to knock out a page or two. You know what they say: One page a day means one book a year :)
WRITE-INS
I host these dedicated times to encourage focus on your craft and works-in-progress. Spend your time writing, reading, researching, outlining, thinking, meditating, sketching, resting your brain — and anything else that supports your literary efforts. This time is for YOU.

FAQs
How do I sign up for your write-ins?
It’s easy! When you sign up for a paid subscription to my Substack newsletter, Writers’ Haven by Christine Wolf, you’re automatically enrolled in all our Silent, Virtual, Drop-In-Anytime Write-In sessions.
Do we share our writing with others during these write-ins?
No. We don’t share our work in these virtual sessions. This is a time for you to write silently and independently. So, turn off your notifications and focus on your writing. However, if you’d like to send me pages for feedback, reach out and let’s schedule something!
What happens during these silent, virtual write-ins?
This is our dedicated time to…
…focus on our works-in-progress
…journal
…outline
…edit our latest drafts
…brainstorm new ideas
…read a book on craft
…sketch out and research our characters/settings/scenes
…meditate on why we and our writing practices are important
…spend quiet, productive time in the company of other writers
…give ourselves permission to tune out the world and focus on our writing project(s)
…use the time exactly as we need it.
Is this for professional writers only?
Goodness, no! It’s for everyone, no matter what your writing level or experience. We all start somewhere, and we all need to carve out some dedicated time for our writing. In these sessions, you’ll find established writers and brand new writers just dabbling and starting out. We’re ALL writers here. No one’s holding up their work. No one’s better than anyone else. We’re all working away independently on our own things…together. :)
What if I don’t know what to work on?
Trust me, you’ll find something to write about if you just make time. Whether you’re typing or writing by hand, the best thing to do when you’re feeling stuck is to start writing, even if that means you write, “I don’t know what I’m here to write about. The blank page is staring at me, and I have nothing to say about anything, including the weather, school, my to-do list, my job, my relationship, my strengths, my insecurities, my dreams, my struggles, my neighbors, international politics, the droopy lettuce in the produce aisle, my hairstyle from 1982…” Believe me, you’ll tap into something to write about, and before you realize it, you’ll get into the zone. These Silent, Virtual, Drop-In Anytime Write-Ins are designed specifically to help your words onto the page.
Do I have to keep my camera on?
Of course not! Join us with your camera on or off.
How do I get the Zoom link?
Once you sign up for a paid subscription, I’ll send you an email with the exclusive Zoom link.
Do participants interact?
No. We work silently and independently. It’s like going to the library or a coffee shop to work. You can look up to see the other people around you, but for this group, we’re not here to socialize. We’re here to work on our own projects, amongst others, doing the same. While I also offer interactive gatherings, this is dedicated time to work independently amongst other writers.
Do I have to tell you when I’m coming or when I’m leaving? Do I have to show up for every session?
Heck no. Just go do your thing! We’ll be focused on our writing. Just shoo and go do you.
What if I come late or leave early? Won’t I disturb others?
There is no “late” or “early” here. If you show up, you’re winning. Writers come and go constantly.
Is it ever awkward? I have anxiety and I’m not sure I’ll feel comfortable in a new situation like this…
During your first visit, you’ll see how chill we are. This is an accepting community of fellow writers who all appreciate being together while working independently. It’s really going to be okay!
Have you run a write-in like this before?
Yes, and the turnout blew me away. We’ve had attendees from all over the globe writing from all kinds of places, including offices, homes, cars, and even a prison. Writers are searching for unique connection, and these Silent, Virtual, Drop-In-Anytime Write-Ins seem to satisfy that unique need!
Do I have to attend every session?
Goodness, no! Attend as many (or as few) sessions as you like.
How do I get the Zoom link?
If you’re already a paid subscriber, scroll down to grab the link. I’ll also email the link to paid subscribers on the day before the session begins. If you’d like to become a paid subscriber, click here:
I know I won’t attend every session. Can I just pay for some of them?
Sorry, but no. To be fair to everyone, we offer every session to everyone who has a paid subscription to Writers’ Haven by Christine Wolf.

• Mondays 9a-11a Central
• Tuesdays 10a-12p Central

• WINTER ‘25/’26: TBD

Can I get a refund or a partial refund if I sign up and then decide this isn’t for me?
Sorry, but no. Refunds aren’t given, and here’s why:
#1 I sincerely want you to show up, so if you have a paid subscription to my newsletter, you’re IN.
#2 In addition to all the other benefits of your paid subscription to Writers’ Haven by Christine Wolf, it’s a GREAT DEAL to have access to this many hosted, facilitated writing sessions.
#3 I’m a much better writer than a bookkeeper, and I don’t have the bandwidth to manage the administrative back-and-forth of refunds.
If I’m signed up for a monthly subscription, can I get access to these write-ins?
Yes, but I want to SAVE YOU MONEY. If you’re a monthly paid subscriber to Writers’ Haven by Christine Wolf, THANK YOU…but you’re spending more than you would with an annual paid subscription! If you’re currently a MONTHLY paid subscriber, it’s easy to upgrade to an ANNUAL paid subscription — and you’ll save money in the long run!
Can I arrange to get feedback on my work from Christine?
Sure! If you’d like me to read pages or provide guidance through stuck-points, please reach out. I regularly work with writers of all levels of experience (I started somewhere, too!). Happy to set up a free 20-minute consult or a discounted hourlong session. Click here to get in touch.
