Book Writing

Personal Growth Book Club: Atomic Habits by James Clear (No need to read the book to attend!) What if the key to lasting change isn’t motivation or willpower, but the systems you build around your daily life? In Atomic Habits, James Clear makes a compelling case that tiny, consistent improvements compound into remarkable results over time. It’s not about making huge leaps, it’s about getting 1% better every day. This book explores: 🔹 Why habits stick (or don’t) and the science behind behaviour change 🔹 How your environment shapes your actions more than you realise 🔹 The four laws of behaviour change and how to apply them 🔹 Why identity matters more than outcomes when building new habits 🔹 How to break bad habits and make good ones feel effortless We’ll unpack the key ideas and practical frameworks from the book, explore how they apply to real life, and open up discussion around the habits we’re trying to build, break, or understand. **Reading the book is optional.** Just come ready to reflect, share, and maybe leave with one small change to try. **Event Structure** ⏰ 18:30 Arrival and Welcome ⏰ 18:45 to 20:00 📖 Presentation by Natalie and Bianca on the book’s key insights and practical applications 💬 Small group discussions on key topics from the book 💰Cost: 7 euros per person, payable in cash or via Bizum/Revolut to Natalie: +34 612 523 277. This helps us cover the cost of running the meetup. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Empezamos con **Antonio Machado**, poeta andaluz de estilo bello y profundo, uno de los más importantes y reconocidos de España. 📖 Puedes traer tu poema favorito de Machado o elegir uno de la selección que tendré preparada para esa noche. 🤝 Y si no te sientes cómodo recitando, también puedes venir solo a escuchar, compartir tu opinión o disfrutar del momento. Aquí no hay presión: estamos para celebrar la poesía juntos. ✨ 📍 En The Book Bar han conseguido un maridaje perfecto entre letras y uvas, así que podrás disfrutar de una copa de vino mientras te dejas llevar por la poesía. 🍇🍷

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.

Do you struggle to find dedicated time for writing or inspiration to get started? Would you like to meet other people who enjoy writing? Or perhaps you'd like to try creative writing for the first time? We'll meet in Barcelona city centre to practice writing, have fun, and share experiences (you don't have to share your actual writing if you don't want to). Here's how it works: each participant will receive two writing prompts and can choose one to work on. A third option is to work on your own project. We'll have one hour of quiet writing time, and then we'll talk about how it went. You're welcome to finish the assignment at home if you'd like. If you want to receive feedback from me, you can email your work to rzhevkinaanna@gmail.com. I'll accept up to five submissions of 800 words or fewer, on a first-come, first-served basis. About me: I'm a former journalist, and I now earn a living by telling brands' stories. My true passion is creative writing with a touch of magic.

**Our July novel is: *Listen for the Lie* by Amy Tintera** **This month’s novel was named one of the best books of 2024. It’s a domestic thriller with crime, mystery, and murder, told from women’s perspectives. The story includes a detective, an unreliable narrator, and plenty of suspense. The book is 352 pages in print and 9 hours and 18 minutes on audiobook.** What if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thought so too? And what if the truth doesn't matter? After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life. But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy’s murder for the show’s second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend’s murder, even if she is the one that did it. The truth is out there, if we just listen.

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!
