The Writer’s Hour: Focused Writing & Community at Fable
Fable - Cafe, Coffee, English Books, Rua dos Prazeres 10A, Lisboa, PTNeed a little nudge to write? Come join our weekly community writing hour at Fable.
Every Tuesday night, we gather in our cozy bookshop cafe for a quiet, focused hour of writing. Whether you're journaling, drafting a novel, penning a love letter, or working on your next blog post, you're welcome here.
We'll write quietly together from 7:30–8:30pm, with an optional sharing circle afterwards for anyone who’d like to read a snippet aloud or connect about their project.
It’s free to join, and no pressure to share. Just come as you are, bring whatever you're working on, and give your creative energy a place to bloom.
A few extras:
- Arrive anytime after 6:30pm for a bite to eat, a glass of natural wine, or to mingle before we begin.
- We kindly ask that all guests order something to help us keep this beloved event going. Your support means the world to us (and our small team).
