El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

**This week's venue: Beer People \| Lázár utca 7\, Budapest 1065** We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, but one can also pre-post the item on [bpcw.slack.com](http://bpcw.slack.com) in the "_NextMeetup" channel (write me at eahofer (at) gmail if you aren't a member already); 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

English below \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Tarts egy kis szünetet a hétköznapi rohanásban és gyere el csendes könyvklubunkba a Fővárosi Szabó Ervin Könyvtárba. Hozd magaddal az aktuális könyvedet, merülj el benne egy órácskát, majd oszd meg velünk, amit olvastál. 🗺 Hogyan találsz meg minket: A tanulótér felújítása miatt az eseményt a FSZEK Ötpacsirta u-i épületében tartjuk (Ötpacsirta u. 4., a Központi Könyvtár bejáratával szemben): az épületbe beérve gyere fel az első emeletre a balra található lépcsőn. A termünk rögtön a lépcsősorral szemben lesz. 💡 Részvételi díj: Nincs. :) 🥤 Étel-ital: Kérünk, zárható üvegben hozz magaddal innivalót, ha az esemény alatt megszomjaznál. Másból inni, valamint a teremben enni nem lehet. 🕑 A menetrend: 17:00–17:30 – Érkezés és bemutakozókör: mit fogsz olvasni? 17:30–18:30 – Csendes olvasás 18:30–19:30 – Választható beszélgetés a könyvekről (magyarul) Extra: Az esemény után igény szerinti afterezés a [Prága Kávéház és Sörözőben](https://pragakavezo.hu/) (Baross u 8.), hogy ne csak könyvekről beszélgessünk! Ha csak erre jönnél, írj üzenetet, hogy ne kerüljük el egymást. Fontos: Ez egy teljesen magyar nyelvű esemény. A bemutatkozó kör az elején és a kötetlen beszélgetés a végén is magyarul zajlik. Az olvasás csendje persze mindenkié, így nyugodtan hozhatsz bármilyen nyelvű könyvet. A részvétel ingyenes, de a helyek korlátozottak. A helyedet a hivatalos Meetup eseményen való regisztrációval tudod biztosítani: Várunk szeretettel! \-\-\-\- Please note: This is a Hungarian-language event. The introductions at the beginning and the optional discussion at the end are held in Hungarian.

Come check us out! You will have a wonderful time! The music and friendships are life-changing!
