Need some inspiration and/or dedicated writing time for your current WIP? Grab your laptop or notebook and join us at Simply show up at Laie Bookstore (we'll be upstairs). Feel free to jump into working on your own writing project immediately, or wait until the quiet time starting at 5:30. at 5 pm for a bit of writer chat, before diving into an hour and a half of focused writing time. At 7, we head to a nearby bar to discuss how it all went.

This meetup is for anyone—anyone at all—who enjoys playing around with words. You’ll be given a prompt (usually one word, such as “playground” or “shiver”) and time to express yourself in writing in response to it. Anything goes: prose, poetry, lists, letters, lyrics; any form which calls to you and demands expression. After we have finished writing, you will be invited to share your piece with the group (totally optional, but the feedback can be fun). The feedback (this is the only part with rules): Responses should be in the form of what stayed with you, what you remembered from the piece, what resonated with you. This is NOT a writing or craft class; there is no good or bad here. Critiques or suggestions miss the point. This is new, tender writing, and we honor it as such. All writing is considered fictional. This is liberating for the writer, as you are free to write about literally anything and it will never be considered to be “about you.” The first person is always just a character. Please bring your own writing equipment. It is helpful to come on time so you can hear the prompt and have enough time to write. Please buy a drink or snack from Charcha, our generous host.

We'll gather at Neal's spot with the goal to create for 2 hours, with some quick breaks in between. Last one of the year! Below is our approx. schedule - so please try to be on time :) 6:30pm - arrival and 5 minute setup 6:35pm - \~10 minute word vomit 6:45pm - 5 minute break and reset 6:50pm - 30 minute writing sesh! 7:20pm - 5 minute break 7:25pm - \~30 minute writing sesh! 7:55pm - 5 minute break 8:00pm - \~30 minute writing sesh! 8:30pm - 10 minute decompression meditation 8:40pm - If folks want a final writers sesh, we do it. Otherwise, we say goodbye :)

✍️ ¡BCN Escribe estrena nuevo taller! SOBREMESA DE ESCRITURA EN COMPAÑÍA ¡Bienvenido a nuestra **sobremesa de escritura**! 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 interés por las palabras. Sobremesa de Escritura es un espacio para escribir sin prisa, compartir el silencio creativo y dejar que las palabras encuentren su camino. Durante tres horas nos reuniremos para crear en compañía, en un entorno tranquilo y acogedor. La sesión comenzará con una consigna o una lectura que sirva como disparador creativo. A partir de ahí, cada participante desarrollará su propio texto a su ritmo. Durante toda la tarde habrá palabras, ejercicios, libros y otros materiales de apoyo para quienes necesiten un impulso, una pausa o un cambio de rumbo. Al final del encuentro compartiremos la lectura de uno o dos textos elegidos por sorteo y cerraremos la sesión con un breve espacio para comentarios y preguntas. Porque a veces lo único que necesita la escritura para ponerse en marcha es una mesa compartida. 📅 Domingo 28 de junio 🕔 17:00 – 20:00 h 📍 Café IDEAL, c/ Marià Aguiló 99 (Poblenou) Taquilla inversa, según satisfacción. Los beneficios se destinarán al mantenimiento de la asociación.

**Domingo 28 de Junio, de 16.00 a 20.30** Casa Bhúo, Carrer del Taulat 71, bajo 1 Barcelona Para confirmar tu participación, escríbeme al número +34 656 737 190. **No se aceptan inscripciones hechas solo a través de Meetup.** **Taller de constelaciones familiares del Espíritu: Reconciliación entre hombres y mujeres.** Vivimos en una época histórica en la que es crucial llevar a cabo un profundo movimiento de reconciliación entre lo masculino y lo femenino. Cargamos siglos y siglos de historias de dolor entre hombres y mujeres, y ese dolor se ha ido perpetuando de generación en generación. El vínculo entre hombre y mujer, y especialmente el vínculo de pareja, es la base que permite que la vida continúe. Por eso es tan importante sanar las heridas del pasado que todavía siguen creando sufrimiento, más dolor y más separación. Solo a través de esta reconciliación puede abrirse una nueva posibilidad entre hombres y mujeres. En lo más profundo, cada hombre y cada mujer anhela tener una pareja, anhela amar y ser amado, sentirse respetado, seguro y acogido en el encuentro con el otro. Muchos de los conflictos que vivimos cotidianamente en nuestras relaciones tienen raíces profundas que se hunden en la historia de nuestro sistema familiar y de nuestro árbol genealógico. El trabajo de constelación aporta una mirada reconciliadora que permite reconocer esas dinámicas, integrarlas y abrir el camino hacia una nueva posibilidad de plenitud y armonía, donde el amor pueda volver a florecer. Si no logramos este movimiento de reconciliación entre hombres y mujeres, la humanidad se enfrenta a grandes desafíos. Su trascendencia va mucho más allá de nuestra relación de pareja; tiene un impacto profundo en nuestras familias, en nuestros hijos y en la sociedad que construimos juntos. Si sientes que estas palabras resuenan contigo, este taller es para ti. Te espero con mucha ilusión Valentina ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Podrás participar de dos maneras: ***Constelando tu propio tema personal.*** ***Participando como representante.* - **Precio: 60 € para constelar tu tema** **20 € para representantes** **Descuentos :** Si traes a alguien al taller: \- Recibes **10 € de descuento** por cada persona que viene a constelar. \- Recibes **5 € de descuento** por cada persona que venga como representante.

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).

**Saturday, June 27th at 18:00.** Welcome to another wonderful event at [Backstory] Bookshop, celebrating poetry, storytelling, and music! 🎙️Gypsy Lounge is a monthly open mic and a vibrant celebration of diversity, creativity, and connection.

Just come by at around 17:45, on the evening of the open mic. The first 8 artists will get to sign up. Each artist will have up to 7 minutes to perform or share their work (or up to 2 songs). Performance slots are **limited,** so please come early. Also, this event is **not managed** by BackStory, so if you have any questions, please DM @gypsy_loungebcn on Instagram.

Those attending with children, please keep this in mind. **Sign-ups:** On arrival, on a first-come basis.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
