Taller de escritura creativa. Martes
Taller de escritura creativa. Martes
¡Bienvenido a nuestro **taller 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 plantea una consigna y da entre 20 y 30 minutos con el objetivo de que estructures un relato (poema, reflexión, ensayo...). Después cada participante lee su texto en voz alta y lo comentamos 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, según satisfacción. Los beneficios son para ayudar al mantenimiento de la asociación.
Cozy Tuesday Book Club: The Trial by Kafka
Cozy Tuesday Book Club: The Trial by Kafka
**Welcome to the meeting of our cozy book club!** 📚☕ This time, we’ll discuss The Trial, Kafka’s philosophical novel. If you haven’t read the book but still want to join, you’re welcome to come. Spoiler alert: we may discuss the ending 😀 **About** **us:** We are a new, small book club exploring a variety of genres and authors in coffee places across Barcelona. We come from different backgrounds, and our discussions are in English. However, you may read in any language. We value thoughtful conversations, a relaxed atmosphere, and inclusivity.
Blank Page Club. Day 1
Blank Page Club. Day 1
Blank Page Club ✨ A cosy urban retreat for reflection, writing & reconnecting with yourself. This meetup is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and create a little space for yourself in the middle of the city. During the session we’ll use guided prompts, reflection cards, and exercises inspired by the book Love Yourself Tender to explore thoughts, emotions, goals, and self-connection in a gentle and low-pressure way. This is not a writing workshop and there is no need to “be good at writing.” Think of it more as a cosy reflective space — part journaling session, part meaningful conversation, part quiet reset. ✨ What to expect: • A welcoming and relaxed atmosphere • Guided reflection prompts & cards • Individual writing/reflection time • Optional sharing & discussion • Tea, connection, and slowing down 🕯 Tentative agenda: 19:00 — Arrival & introductions 19:15 — Guided reflection exercise 19:45 — Writing/journaling time 20:15 — Optional sharing & discussion 20:45 — Wrap up & informal chats 📖 What to bring: • A notebook or journal • A pen • An open mind • No need to have or read the book 🙂 The idea is to create a small cosy community and hopefully make this a regular gathering. Just you and a blank page to fill in. Let’s see what happens.

🍷 Wine and Read : Los santos inocentes 📖🐦
***Los santos inocentes*, Miguel Delibes **📖 En la Extremadura profunda de los años sesenta, una familia de campesinos sobrevive al servicio de los señores del cortijo bajo un régimen de explotación casi feudal. *Los santos inocentes* es una obra maestra de la literatura española: una denuncia feroz de la injusticia social 🏚️, narrada con una voz única que mezcla oralidad y poesía, y protagonizada por personajes que te romperán el corazón por su dignidad y su inocencia 💔. ✨ Delibes es de los grandes. Premio Cervantes incluido. Y este libro lo demuestra todo. 🎬** ¿Sabías que tiene película? **La adaptación de 1984 dirigida por Mario Camus es igualmente legendaria. Os recomendamos verla después de leer el libro para llegar a la sesión con todo. 🍷 Nos reuniremos en** [book bar bcn](https://www.thebookbarbcn.es/inicio) **para discutir el libro con una copa de vino en mano. Sin presiones. Solo gente curiosa y conversaciones con alma. 📚** ¿Dónde conseguir el libro? **Lo puedes comprar en cualquier librería local, en Casa del Libro o en librerías de Re-Read. Y si prefieres no comprarlo, recuerda que puedes pedirlo prestado gratuitamente en las bibliotecas públicas.💖 ***The Holy Innocents*, Miguel Delibes **📖 Set in rural Extremadura in the 1960s, this Spanish masterpiece follows a peasant family bound to a feudal estate, enduring daily humiliation with quiet dignity. Delibes writes with a raw, poetic voice unlike anything else in Spanish literature. A devastating critique of class and power 🏚️ that stays with you long after the last page 💔. ✨ A true landmark of 20th century literature and one of the most important novels ever written in Spanish. 🎬** It also has a film! **The acclaimed 1984 adaptation by Mario Camus is the perfect watch after finishing the book. Come to the session ready to talk about both! 🍷 Join us at** [book bar bcn](https://www.thebookbarbcn.es/inicio) **for an evening of books, ideas, and good wine. No pressure. Just curious people and real conversation. 📚** Where to get the book? **You can buy it at any local bookshop, at Casa del Libro or on Re-Read bookshops. Prefer to borrow it?

Summer Writers' Retreat by Girls Who Write
Summer Writers' Retreat by Girls Who Write
**✍🏻 Run away with the Girls Who Write club this summer and make time for your writing – this will be a long weekend to remember!** Barcelona in the summer is the vibe...however, it gets really touristy, hectic and sticky...Imagine getting away from it all to a beautiful secret mansion to focus on your writing, while everything else is being taken care of! A long weekend to slow down, put pen to paper whenever you want, read by the pool – and meet like-minded women who love writing as much as you do. **Whether you're visiting or a local, this is the creative escape you need this summer.** 🏡 We are gathering in a perfect secret spot in Barcelona: far away from all the noise, but close enough to the center in case you want to get in and out on your own. Our beautiful hillside mansion features AC, pool and sauna – and nine individual rooms perfect for resting. You'll feel like you're away in nature...while being two metro stops away from all the buzz :) Here, nothing will distract you from writing! **📚 What you'll be working on?** Whether you're exploring self-discovery through journaling, crafting a memoir, creating short stories or poetry, or finally bringing that long-planned book to life, I aim to offer you a safe, nurturing space to connect with your words and creativity. Dive into cherished childhood memories, share fascinating anecdotes from your life that could inspire a captivating story, or pour your deepest emotions onto the page and witness how your perspective transforms. I believe every woman is a natural-born storyteller, and every girl's life is a compelling book waiting to be written. **Let’s uncover yours!** *What to expect:* 📝 **Journaling Workshops**: Dive deep into your emotions, memories and experiences through guided journaling sessions, unlocking the power of self-expression and introspection under the guidance of Marusha, founder of [Girls Who Write](http://www.girlswhowrite.club/), [Naked Words](https://mashamozolevskaya.com/mynakedwords) and Barcelona Journaling Festival. 📚 **Writing buffet:** try creating a memoir, a profound dialogue, a book character based on a person dear to your heart *(even if you don't have any book in the works yet!)* and explore some controversial topics in a safe, supportive community. 🌅 Sunrise SUP at Barceloneta. The most magical thing you can do in the summer in Barcelona – watch the sun rising from the horizon and waking up the city, while gently rocking on the waves. It's safe and fun! You don't even need to know how to swim. Bring your journal if you dare :) ✨ **Deep Connection to Self**: Throughout the day, immerse yourself in moments of stillness and self-discovery, cultivating a profound connection to your innermost being and fostering a sense of inner peace and alignment. We'll enjoy guided forest-bathing (sinrin-yoku) and embodiment sessions as well. 🍤 **Amazing food!** We'll be served lovely meals cooked by our private chef. The menu is Mediterranean, organic, and absolutely scrumptious! We'll take good care of you...while you write :) **Please read the full retreat description [here.](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona)** More info on what kind of workshops to expect, the price range, etc [www.girlswhowrite.club/barcelona](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona) *Barcelona residents get a special offer – please do not hesitate to message the organizer.* 🔥 Please note that there are two retreat dates available for this summer: **12-14 JUNE and 3-5 JULY.** Choose what fits your summer plans best and let us know when you'd like to come.

Bad Girls Book Club July 2026
Bad Girls Book Club July 2026
**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.
