**About Me**
Hi! Iâm Anastasia. I started our writing club back in May 2025, hosted weekly at the Heinrich Schulz Library (thanks to them, itâs free every Saturday!). With time we have grown and now we also meet on every second Tuesday and Sunday at the cafe. Over time, Iâve been lucky to meet some of the most creative and kind minds in Berlin. Happy to host our second Open Mic and see what all of you have prepared.
This event is an invitation to celebrate your words and the magic that happens when we speak them out loud together.
Looking forward to meeting you all â and hearing your voices.
PS Happy Birthday!

We are making reservation and counting on you to show up, so please register only when you are going to be there, don't forget to update your RSVP if you can't come.
Unfortunately cafes in Berlin are getting less and less laptop-friendly, please don't forget to order your drink or snack to support the cafe which will have us.

- Arrival and introduction (~20 minutes)
- â Silent reading (~1 hour)
- â Discussion (~30-40 minutes)
- â Join us for a bite at a local restaurant afterwards, if you like!
You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you!
No registration needed â the event is donation based. All funds support the Offenes Wohnzimmer.
