When you sign up for Pyjama Writing, you will be signing up for the whole week. This does not mean that you have to come every day — our lives often interfere with our writing! You will receive the reminder link each morning, but whether you can come or not is up to you. Also, if you need to come late or leave early, that's also an option with no shame attached! This is a place for you to connect with your Muse and your writing project(s) as regularly as possible. There are enough places in our lives where we feel badly about not being able to show up for ourselves the way we want to. This does not have to be one of them. :-)
