Øya: Shut up and write in the library

Do you struggle with getting your writing done? Or is your office packed with emails, visitors and unforeseen tasks? Come to «Skrivepress» in the library!

“Skrivepress” is structured time for writing, based on the concept Shut Up & Write. Bring your article, thesis, book draft, or whatever you are working on.

We will work together in silence for 45 minutes, before an alarm signals a break. After 15 minutes’ break, we do a second 45-minutes session of silent writing.

How does it work?

“Skrivepress” has a set of few, but strict rules. During the writing sessions, you are not allowed to talk, walk around, use your phone or be on social media. (You can do all this during the break.) You are allowed to eat (silently) and listen to music through headphones. You can participate in both or only one of the sessions, but you can only enter or leave the room during the break.
