I'm an independent writer based in chicago.

Shut Up & Write is owned and operated by Writing Partners, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Hosting free, in-person and online writing events for writers all over the world. The goal is to ensure that every writer – regardless of genre or skill level – has access to the resources, community, and accountability that they need to be successful in their personal writing goals.

I hosted a virtual writer’s workshop with Young Authors Greenhouse, a local nonprofit based in Louisville, Kentucky that nurtures the mind of young writers in the city through writing, publishing programs, creative partnerships with schools, and a community of engaged volunteers.
