Mad Hours Writers Workshop
Thu, Oct 22, 5:00 PM**MAD HOURS WRITERS WORKSHOP** *Der Salon* is looking for writers to join the first gathering of Mad Hours Writers Workshop: an informal, in-person writing workshop in Berlin, launching this October. For writers of all genres and forms, writing in English. PROSE, POETRY, FRAGMENTS, FINISHED PIECES, ROGUE SPARKS, BIZARRE BEGINNINGS – whatever form the writing takes, it is welcome. Mad Hours is a space to bring the work out of isolation and into conversation. A traditional workshop at heart: a writer shares their work, receives immediate feedback and the group reads, listens, discusses, questions and thinks together. But also something looser: a space for discussions and experimentations. The workshop will be led by Kiana Palombo, a writer and publishing mentor, who will bring structure, materials, resources to each gathering. The aim being not simply to gather writers in a room and hope something happens, but to invite exchange, affirmation and conflict. *Reserve Your Spot Now!* **The first workshop will be on Thursday 22 October, between 7-9pm at Schankwirtschaft Laidak in Berlin.** **If you'd like to join the table, email us at** comeovertodersalon@gmail.com **with your name and a few words about what you're working on. Looking forward to meeting you there!**

Reading Group: Perfect Victims by Mohammed El-Kurd
Tue, Oct 27, 6:00 PMAs an extension of a successful cinema get-together with some friends, we thought that reading a book (or part of a book) together would be a great way to get together, read, discuss and write! Location is going to be a cafe in Kreuzberg or Neukolln, TBA depending on how many people confirm attendance. The first book we will read will be Perfect Victims by Mohammed El-Kurd. **First meeting:** short introduction to the book and the author. For this first meeting, it would be great if we can manage to read the first chapter 1 "the sniper's hands are clean of blood" (around 25 pages). The event is free but registration is required, [please RSVP by filling the Google Form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfat1YSGLSP7TGcdLjozwXaI-LZK3Ub4FaLb-Fdj_PSvbAfWw/viewform?usp=header). The book is available to order on [Thalia.de](https://www.thalia.de/shop/home/artikeldetails/A1072046428). More details on location will be shared soon. Looking forward to it!

I started this writing club back in May 2025. Since then, it has been hosted weekly at the Heinrich Schulz Library (who is kind enough to allow us to use this room for free). Over this time, I’ve been privileged to meet some of the most creative and kind minds in Berlin. We have grown very very much, this community has now expanded to more organisers and more writers. And I would be happy if you joined us. Whether you're an experienced writer or just at the beginning of your journey, you're welcome. If you know how to hold a pen or how to type, there will always be a space for you. Let's write together!

Writing Group Berlin ✍️ | FIRST DRAFT — Write Your Book Together
Sat, Oct 24, 1:00 PMHi, I’m Khushboo Sangwan, a left-handed creative writer and project manager living in Berlin. I’ve always dreamed of writing a book. 📖 But somehow, life keeps getting in the way. Work, responsibilities, other plans, and suddenly another year has passed and that first draft is still sitting somewhere in your head. 💻 I know how difficult it is to stay consistent when you’re doing it alone. ✍️ So I decided to stop waiting for the perfect time and create the kind of writing group I wished I had. And I’m not going to sit there and tell you what to do while you write. I’ll be writing my own book with you. 📕 Every Saturday, we’ll meet for focused writing time, take a couple of short breaks, and then spend some time talking about what we’re working on, helping each other through creative blocks and figuring out what comes next. 📚💡 I’ll also help you look at your book like a creative project. We can talk about planning, timelines, accountability, Notion, finishing your first draft and, eventually, how to start thinking about literary agents and getting published. 📑 Our first session 15:00 Arrive & settle in 15:10–16:00 Writing sprint ⏳ 16:00–16:10 Break 💛 16:10–17:00 Writing sprint ⏳ 17:00–17:10 Break 💛 17:10–18:00 Writing sprint ⏳ 18:00–18:30 Discussion, brainstorming & support 💬 This is completely free. I’m starting this because I genuinely believe that we can finish our books if we stop trying to do it alone. I want to see your first draft in your hands six months from now. 🍀 And I want mine there too. 📖 If you’ve been dreaming about becoming an author and you’re serious about finally doing something about it, come join me. ❤️ Bring your laptop. Bring your unfinished story. Bring the idea that’s been sitting in your head for years. Let’s write our books together. And let’s see if, six months from now, we can call ourselves published authors. ✍️
