For introverts, the hardest part is leaving the house. Once you get to the venue, it’s easy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Arrive to the venue any time during the event time window, other participants will come and go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Look for signs that read “Silence In The Library” and “Whispers In The Night” – have a seat wherever you want in that area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 People might look up from their books, but probably not. Nobody will greet you and you don’t have to greet anybody else – this is normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 If you’d like something to eat or drink you need to go to the bar and let them know. They won’t ask your name and you don’t even need to speak, you could just hand them a note and tap your card \/ pay cash and you’re done! They won’t call for you when your order is ready and nobody will come to your table either, just quietly come up and collect it and sit back down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Get out your book, laptop, sketchpad or whathaveyou and do your thing in peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 When you’re done, quietly pack up and leave when you’re ready. No awkward smiles, “Goodbye’s”, “See you next time”, “Have a good one…”, just walk out the door and have a safe drive home. Nobody will think you’re being rude when you do this, it’s okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
