ACX Meetups Everywhere Fall 2026

Let's meet for the ACX Fall Meetups in the Humboldthain! This will likely be a big meetup, as it was announced by Scott on ACX. From experience, I expect 25–50 attendees. Humboldthain is good to reach by public transport; the next train stops are S+U Gesundbrunnen and S Humboldthain. You don't have to RSVP, pay money, or know anything about the blog. Please feel free to come even if you feel awkward about it, even if you're not "the typical ACX reader", even if you're worried people won't like you, etc. You're unlikely to be an outlier, regardless of whether you're very weird, very normie, or somewhere in between. I'll buy some snacks; feel free to bring something to share as well. There are also many restaurants around if you get hungry. Location: Big lawn at the center of Humboldthain — [https://plus.codes/9F4MG9WP+36](https://plus.codes/9F4MG9WP+36) Contact: Reply to this event, message me here on Meetup, or join the Telegram group below.

Monthly Book Club Meeting - November

Dear Book Enthusiasts, For our October gathering, we’ll be reading ***The Image of Her*** by the renowned French writer and philosopher **Simone de Beauvoir**. Set in 1960s Paris, this thought-provoking novel follows a seemingly successful woman who appears to have everything one could wish for: a loving family, financial comfort, a fulfilling career, and a life that looks enviable from the outside. Yet beneath this polished image, there are struggles with a persistent sense of dissatisfaction and the conflicting expectations placed upon her. 📅 **Date & Time:** Sunday, 22 November 2026, at 15:00 📍 **Location:** Cafe Beatz, Neue Kantstraße 32, 14057 Berlin 💬 **Contribution:** As always, a €3 contribution after the meeting helps cover organizational costs. I am thrilled to announce that, after a long absence, I am finally back on track! I look forward to hearing all your thoughts and impressions on the upcoming books! Warmly, Sofya

SU&W Monday Evening in Mitte

Writing can feel like a solitary experience, but it doesn't have to be! Writing in the company of others can be surprisingly inspiring, productive, and comforting. Writers of all types and levels are welcome. Whether you're writing a novel, a memoir, poetry, journaling, working on your thesis, or even catching up on emails, all are welcome. We do things a little differently on Monday evenings. We start with an introduction round, then we will do 45 minutes of writing, break and share how it went, and then dive into the next 45-minute session. **For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come**. In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: [https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw](https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw) For more information, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com/).
