為什麼在咖啡廳工作更有效率? Why We Work Well at Cafés
「趕稿咖啡廳」更特別之處在於客人需要向店員說明他們當天的寫作目標。

專題特寫

        For many writers, cafés are the best places to go when an important deadline is coming up. One café in Japan has decided to target writers that need to get their work done quickly. The Manuscript Writing Café in Tokyo opened in April 2022. The café is designed to help writers struggling with writer’s block.

        The café is small, but it provides everything necessary for writers to sharpen their focus and finish their assignments. The café won’t even let customers take a seat unless they will be doing some kind of writing or artistic project. That means comic book artists and authors as well as songwriters are also welcome.

        What makes the Manuscript Writing Café even more unique is that customers have to announce their writing goals for the day to the café staff. Customers are also charged for each half-hour they stay at the café. What’s more, they aren’t allowed to leave until they have completed their work for the day. What do you think? Does that sound like a good system to beat writer’s block?
