While one session may have you contemplating in the inner mind of a whale, another may prompt you to listen in on your immediate surroundings for cues. Of course, you can also just write about whatever you damned-well please. Or stare. Staring is sometimes good, too. Music might be playing, snacks will definitely be snacking, and sharing will be encouraged, but never forced.Write Now: Generative Creative Writing Sessions are held every Wednesday evening and Saturday morning for writers of all genres and levels. Drop in for a boost of inspiration, or come every week to build a consistent writing practice. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/washington/write-now-with-courtney-sexton/100001901350804439 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, workshops, health-wellness, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 10, max: 10, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Washington - **state**: DC - **country**: United States - **location**: Goethe-Institut Washington - **lat**: 38.9127472 - **long**: -77.0315013 - **full address**: Goethe-Institut Washington, 1377 R Street Northwest, Washington, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Write Now with Courtney Sexton - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/acdff98c2fbb4a5aa260a6482ffc376e37690c6634fc75a0a350a8b6b1c92618-rimg-w1200-h800-dcfcf4eb-gmir.jpg?v=1761864649 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Write Now with Courtney Sexton being held? - **A:** Write Now with Courtney Sexton takes place on Wed, 19 Nov, 2025 at 06:30 pm to Wed, 19 Nov, 2025 at 08:30 pm at Goethe-Institut Washington, 1377 R Street Northwest, Washington, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Write Now with Courtney Sexton? - **A:** Write Now with Courtney Sexton is organized by The Inner Loop: A Literary Reading Series. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
