SUMMARY:Monthly 5am Writing Club
DESCRIPTION:Join other writers from 5am on the first Wednesday of the month
  to write as the sun rises. First drink included and discount on othersWhe
 re better to write than a bookshop with a cafe? When better than at 5am? J
 oin other local writers from 5am on the first Wednesday of every month to 
 write as the sun comes up. Coffee\, tea and pastries available to kickstar
 t your writing morning.We'll open the shop at 5am and you're welcome to jo
 in us then\, or at anytime after that - and leave whenever you need to. Th
 e shop opens to the general public at 9.30am but if you're in full flow\, 
 you're free to stay as long as you like.Tickets are limited to 20 as we on
 ly have so many chairs and table space. While the majority of writers sit 
 upstairs in the cafe\, we also have chairs and tables on the ground floor 
 and in the cosy basement\, so feel free to spread yourself about throughou
 t the bookshop - wherever you feel comfortable.We've had to increase our p
 rices in 2025 because of the increase in Eventbrite fees\, the minimum wag
 e and Employers National Insurance. Tickets now cost £10 (including VAT) 
 BUT in addition to including your first coffee or pot of tea\, you will al
 so get a 30% discount on any other drinks or snacks. The local bakery usua
 lly delivers our pastries at about 7.30am to give you that extra energy bo
 ost.This is a silent write session - there's no workshopping\, just the mo
 tivation of being around other writers as the sun comes up. We can promise
  you a magical atmosphere.Why do we do this? Author and bookshop owner Cat
 hy Hayward has regularly risen at 5am to write and she wondered if other l
 ocal writers did the same. We started the 5am Writing Club in the bookshop
  as a trial on the Summer Solstice 2023. They've proved popular so they're
  now a monthly fixture and we'll keep running them as long as people keep 
 turning up. If you have any questions\, or feedback\, email cathy@kemptown
 bookshop.co.ukTickets are non-refundable and non-transferable just because
  of the admin involved and Eventbrite's high fees - sorry.
