Quiet Writing Hour (English)
Details
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, short story, to a longer project like a novel. 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.
Location:
Mommy’s Café
Fruchthallstraße 11, 67655 Kaiserslautern

About me:
I (Sheikh) recently moved to Kaiserslautern and work as a fellow at MPI-SWS. I enjoy writing in my free time and am hosting this meetup as a simple, regular space to write together.
Looking forward to getting to know you!
