From byOlive Creative Community - Barcelona

Get inspired to write at **Llibreria Finestres** - one of the coolest bookshops in Barcelona, with the cosiest café (where we are meeting). This is your space to **get inspired, write and share.** No specific theme - just **one hour of free writing** (19–20h), whether you’re working on a **novel, article, or a short piece.** The **last 30 minutes we share** what we’ve written — doubts, findings, work in progress. Our facilitator Esther is currently completing a Master’s in Creative Writing and writing her first novel. She’ll share her tips and insights along the way. To **confirm your spot**, which **includes a drink of your choice**, send **5€ via Bizum** to +34 636 735 840 (organizer Olivia’s phone number). Make sure to write your name in the description. See you there! <3

From Asociación Barcelona Escribe

¡Bienvenido a nuestro **taller disparador de relato corto** de los martes! No importa si tienes experiencia o si acabas de empezar. Todo lo que necesitas es algo para escribir y ganas de pasar un rato agradable compartiendo tu pasión por la escritura. El moderador planteará una consigna y dará entre 20 y 30 minutos con el objetivo de que estructures un relato (poema, reflexión, ensayo...). Después cada participante leerá su texto en voz alta y lo comentaremos entre todos. Una manera divertida de mantener en forma el «músculo» creativo y de encontrar tu propia voz literaria, mientras aprendemos unos de otros. Taquilla inversa. Se paga según la satisfacción.

Coffee Connections

Coffee Connections

Fri, May 15, 9:00 AM
From Backstory English Bookshop - Events
4.7

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).
