Quiet Writing Hour (English)

Hi everyone,

Quiet Writing Hour is a low-key creative writing meetup where we sit down to write together.

The focus is on creative writing, such as fiction, poetry, or personal projects. Writers of all levels are welcome. You can work on anything, from a short poem to a longer project. We usually begin with a short writing exercise using a prompt for the first fifteen minutes to get started.
The meetup is also a way to meet other writers and be part of a small writing community in Kaiserslautern.

Meeting Time: 18:30, 20th January, 2026
Location:
Cafe Extrablatt Kaiserslautern
Marktstraße 26, 67655 Kaiserslautern

Looking forward to getting to know you!
