Sunday Writing Session

Sun, Nov 15, 9:00 AM

From Paris Lit Up

A weekly writing session brought to you by Paris Lit Up. Every Sunday morning, we get together at Neuvième Sauvage for two hours of writing. There are no exercises, workshops or assigned prompts. The idea is simply to have a regular time and place to sit down, work on whatever you’re writing, and do it in the company of other writers. Bring whatever you’re working on—fiction, poetry, nonfiction, a screenplay, an essay, or anything else—and whatever you like to write with. Laptops, tablets, notebooks and pens are all welcome. From 10:00 to 12:00, we write. There’s no pressure to share your work or talk about what you’re writing during the session. You can simply grab a coffee, find a seat and get some words down. Neuvième Sauvage also has good coffee and some nice breakfast options if you’d like something while you write. At 12:00, once the two hours of writing are over, those who want to stick around are invited to share what they’ve been working on. You can read something aloud, talk a little about what you’ve been writing, or just listen. Other participants are welcome to offer some light feedback, and it’s also a chance to chat and socialise after the morning’s writing. The Sunday Writing Sessions are free to attend. Neuvième Sauvage 20 Rue Gérando, 75009 Paris Sundays, 10:00–12:00 When you arrive, go up two levels. You’ll find us on the top floor. All genres and levels of experience are welcome.

Projet d’écriture

Mon, Nov 23, 6:00 PM

Ce club s'adresse aux personnes qui ont un projet d'écriture en cours ou en préparation : roman, nouvelles, scénario, univers de fiction, etc. Pas besoin d'avoir terminé : quelques pages, un plan ou une idée un peu développée suffisent. Le principe Un rendez-vous régulier pour parler de nos projets, se donner des retours et échanger Chaque séance peut avoir un thème (personnages, relations, société d'un monde, structure, méthode de travail…) et potentiellement des petits exercices en rapport. Pour cette première séance, on commencera par un petit tour de table pour présenter son projet, avec la possibilité de partager des extraits, ses difficultés ou autre. Il n’y a et n’aura aucune obligation ni jugement, l’objectif étant la bienveillance et une rencontre régulière qui permet de rendre l’écriture moins solitaire. Chacun pourra aussi se proposer pour relire en binôme des textes ou des extraits des autres au fur et à mesure des séances. Je ferais des propositions et on pourra discuter et choisir en fonction des envies de chacun le déroulé et les thèmes des prochaines séances, l’idée étant d’avoir un rendez vous le lundi soir sur un rythme à définir. À bientôt !

Haruki MURAKAMI : lecture de courts récits et écriture (eng/fr/jp)

Sun, Nov 15, 4:00 PM

**BOOK : 「短編集　女のいない男たち」（2014年）** ***MEN WITHOUT WOMEN, a short stories collection (2017)*** ***DES HOMMES SANS FEMMES, nouvelles* (2014)** (As for the contents, please refer links below.) Let's hang out together and read some pieces of writings by MURAKAMI Haruki, an author from Japan and one of the most cherished worldwide since the 1990s, and talk about his philosophy of writing short stories, in order to dare our own fictional writing, supported by the Murakami global lightness. Réunissons-nous pour lire ensemble quelques nouvelles de MURAKAMI Haruki, écrivain japonais et l'un des plus choyés à travers le monde depuis les années 1990, et pour discuter sa philosophie de l'écriture des nouvelles, afin, peut-être, que nous osions quelque essai d'écriture fictive nous-mêmes, aidés par la légèreté mondialement notoire de Murakami. A title from the contents in audio : "Sheherazade" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icrvU9k_a7Y&t=596s His philosophy of writing short stories from the opening of another short stories collection "Blind Willow and Sleeping Woman" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2PlqSA7ZDM Here are wikipedia refereces : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_Without_Women_(Murakami_short_story_collection) https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Des_hommes_sans_femmes

Writers' On-Line Feedback Session via Zoom

Tue, Nov 17, 3:00 PM

From Paris Scriptorium

4.9

This group is for anyone interested in writing in English, whether it be prose or poetry or non-fiction. We get together once a week to listen, critique and support each other in our work. Attendees bring something they have written, six copies, printed out and no longer than seven pages, which they read aloud. They then receive feedback from the rest of the group. The size of the group is limited to 6, so that everyone is able to receive a full 30 minutes of constructive feedback including reading time. If you have nothing to read but would like to come and listen, you are most welcome too. We are an anglophone group and everything is conducted in English, in fact not everyone who comes can speak French. Please bear this in mind if you sign up.

Right Bank Writers’ Group — Feedback Workshop

Sat, Nov 14, 3:00 PM

From Paris Lit Up

A writers’ feedback workshop brought to you by Paris Lit Up. Bring something you’ve been working on — prose, poetry, fiction, nonfiction, or anything in between — and get thoughtful feedback from fellow writers. Each writer gets a 20-minute slot, divided between reading their work aloud and receiving feedback from the group. How you divide your time is up to you — as a guide, 1,000 words takes around eight minutes to read aloud. If you’d like to share your work: • Bring at least 10 printed copies for the group. • All genres are welcome. • Reading slots are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. • If there isn’t enough time for everyone to read, those who miss out will be given priority at the next feedback workshop. You don’t have to bring your own work to take part. Readers, listeners and thoughtful critics are equally welcome. La Chope des Compagnons 86 Quai de l’Hôtel de Ville, Paris Saturdays, 16:00–18:00 (4pm–6pm) The workshop costs 5€, which helps Paris Lit Up cover the cost of renting the space. Cash and card accepted. For more information: info@parislitup.com
