Zoom Focus Sessions

Once a month, the Royal Court will host a Zoom focus session for writers, where we’ll hold each other to account for getting some proper work done. Free and open for all Writers’ Card Members to attend, these two-hour sessions will be a place to support dedicated, quiet creative work for anyone who needs the extra push.

How it works

Each Zoom session will be hosted by a member of the Royal Court’s artistic team. At the start we will take five minutes to go around, introduce ourselves, and state our ambitions and intentions for the two-hour period.

All participants will be asked to turn their microphones off for the duration of the meeting, but invited to keep video turned on for accountability as they prefer. You can join or depart the session as you need.

Participants are invited to ask questions of one another using the Zoom chat feature (e.g., inviting creative input, brainstorming, etc.), but with no obligation for anyone to join the chat.

At the end, we’ll do ten minutes when anyone who wants to can turn their microphone back on and share what progress they’ve made, and any commitment they want to make for their own next steps.
