I WRITE – A Silent Writing Club (Just You & Your Words)
Welcome to **I WRITE**, a gentle space for anyone who wants to write—quietly, freely, and without judgement.
We are a Berlin community of writers who gather together weekly to write, talk and recharge after a long week. Some of us journal, some write novels, some do academic writing, many people come without a project in mind and see where the inspiration flow takes them. This is a space to simply show up and write, a safe place to be yourself and to release all your layers onto the paper.
There’s no set topic, no feedback circle, and no pressure. Just warm people, a calm atmosphere, and time dedicated to yourself.
🗓️ **Agenda:**
* 14:30 - 15:00 **→** 30 min arriving, optional socialising (arrive early, meet other writers)
* 15:00 - 16:00 **→** 1 hour of silent writing (headphones welcome, focus encouraged)
* 16:00–16:30 **→** 30 mins break + optional chat or solo time (stay and chat or go celebrate the rest of your Saturday)
* 16:30–17:30 → 1 more hour of silent writing (for those staying)
* 17:30–18:00 → 30 mins of chat, and leaving
🎒 **Bring:**
* Something to write with (laptop, notebook, phone, typewriter… anything goes)
* Something to drink (there is no cafeteria, unfortunately)
* Your current project or a blank page
* Yourself, exactly as you are
**👉 Responsibility:**
* Our location is limited; thus, I am kindly asking you to RSVP only if you are willing to attend.
**📍Location:**
* We meet at **Heinrich Schulz Library in Charlottenburg**. In the library, go look for the Gruppenraum; I will be waiting for you there. Any trouble finding the room, I will come to meet you outside.
* 🚇 U7 **Richard-Wagner-Platz**
* 🚌 M45 Bus **U Richard-Wagner-Platz**
**About me:**
Hi, my name is Anastasia. I started this writing club back in May 2025. Since then, it has been hosted weekly at the Heinrich Schulz Library (who is kind enough to allow us to use this room for free). Over this time, I’ve been privileged to meet some of the most creative and kind minds in Berlin. And I would be happy if you joined us. Whether you're an experienced writer or just at the beginning of your journey, you're welcome. If you know how to hold a pen or how to type, there will always be a space for you.
Let's write together!
Outdoor Silent Reading/Creating Club at Tilla-Durieux-Park [Luma to RSVP]
RSVP on [Luma](https://luma.com/0f3ue7fu?utm_source=Meetup).
Silent Reading / Creating Club is a gathering for people who enjoy focusing together in public.
Bring a book, a notebook, a sketchpad, knitting needles, whatever you’d like to spend a quiet hour doing. All projects and all participants are welcome.
We’re building a community of readers and creators who value depth, presence, and shared silence. The reading and creating isn't the real highlight, though, it’s in the people who return and make it feel like a familiar room.
(Please RSVP “yes” only if you can make it, so we can save a seat for you and others on the waitlist.)
Our Meeting Point is in the middle of the **Tilla-Durieux-Park near Potsdamer Platz**. Bring a picnic blanket, a cushion, and maybe some snacks/a drink!
No assignments, expectations, or pressure. Just a shared hour of intentional silence, followed by the opportunity for good conversation.
🕰 Our Agenda
**10:30 – 11:00**
Arrivals, ordering drinks/food, light social time
**11:00 – 12:00**
The Great Quiet Hour
(Read. Write. Sketch. Code. Think. Sit.)
**12:00 – 12:30**
Optional socializing: share what you were reading or creating, or simply continue in quiet focus.
## 🏡 House Guidelines
To keep this space calm and welcoming for everyone:
• Silence during the focus hour (no calls or conversations)
• Put cellphones on silent mode
• If using technology, please avoid meetings or audio (headphones please!)
• Arrive before 11:00 if possible to minimize disruptions

Kreative Schreibwerkstatt in Charlottenburg (14:30 Uhr!)
Für Mitglieder von Text Collective Berlin ist die Teilnahme an dieser Veranstaltung kostenlos.
Nicht-Mitglieder werden um eine Spende von zehn Euro gebeten.
[https://textcollective.de/ticket](https://textcollective.de/ticket)
Es handelt sich um einen moderierten Workshop.
Kreative Schreibübung mit anschließender Diskussion zum Erfahrungsaustausch, Inspiration und Motivation zu sammeln. Ein Raum für alle, die kreativ schreiben möchten – egal ob du gerade erst anfängst oder schon länger schreibst.
**Jeden zweiten Samstag des Monats von 14:30 Uhr bis 16:30 Uhr in Charlottenburg (Haus am Mierendorffplatz).**
**Was dich erwartet:**
In unseren Treffen arbeiten wir mit abwechslungsreichen Schreibimpulsen, die neue Perspektiven eröffnen und spielerisches Experimentieren ermöglichen. Du schreibst direkt vor Ort, teilst deine Texte mit der Gruppe (freiwillig!) und erhältst konstruktives Feedback.
Die Atmosphäre ist offen und unterstützend. Hier darf ein Text noch unfertig sein, eine Idee noch roh, ein Gedanke noch unausgereift. In dieser Atmosphäre gegenseitiger Wertschätzung entsteht der Mut, sich auszuprobieren und die eigene Stimme zu entdecken. Wir lesen einander vor, geben Rückmeldung, ermutigen uns gegenseitig und praktizieren das Zuhören.
**Über Text Collective Berlin:**
Wir sind eine kreative Schreibcommunity, die regelmäßige Workshops und Lesungen organisiert. 2025 erschien unsere erste Anthologie "Begegnung zwischen Welten" mit Texten aus der Schreibwerkstatt.

FEHLSTELLEN - ein Leseabend des Autorenforum Berlin e.V. - Texte und Bilder
Samstag, 9. Mai, 20-22 Uhr,
EINTRITT FREI
Wir wissen nicht, was im Verborgenen liegt, aber wir laden Euch ein, es mit uns zu ergründen. Wir, das Autorenforum Berlin e. V., präsentieren euch einen Abend mit Lesenden aus dem Kreis des Autorenforums und ihren Texten, in denen überbelichtet, Fragmente fixiert und das Alltägliche neu gerahmt wird.
Wir haben Texte für Euch gesucht, die wie Lücken in der Erinnerung klaffen oder behaupten, sie seien schon immer da gewesen. Es sind Texte, die aus dem Rahmen fallen, niemanden meinen und doch jeden treffen – gefunden im Rauschen einer fremden Cloud, zwischen den unkenntlich gemachten Zeilen gefundener Dateien. Es werden Konturen geschärft und Hintergründe sichtbar gemacht. Kommt dazu, wenn wir Geschichten Gehör schenken, die das Verborgene hervortreten lassen, die unerbittlich in die Sichtbarkeit schneiden.
www.lange-buchnacht.de/2026/tak-village/fehlstellen/
Kommt dazu und feiert mit uns, und lauscht gebannt dem Unausgesprochenen!
Kuratiert und moderiert von:
Alexandra Balakina, Thimo von Stuckrad und Peter Franz Weber

April book selection: The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie
For our April gathering, let us delve into Rushdie’s “largest aesthetic achievement,” according to Harold Bloom and what scholars describe as fundamentally a study of alienation and hybrid identity: The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie.
**About the Book**
*The Satanic Verses* is a complex, magical-realist novel that intertwines multiple storylines involving two Indian expatriates — **Gibreel Farishta**, a famous Bollywood actor, and **Saladin Chamcha**, an immigrant voice actor in Britain — who survive the mid-air bombing of a hijacked plane and fall into a surreal fantasy world. Their experiences blur dream and reality, exploring altered identities, spiritual visions, and personal transformations. One of the key narratives involves a mythical city and a prophet figure named **Mahound**, whose revealed “verses” and tribal conflicts echo and reimagine early Islamic history in dream sequences that question faith, revelation, and authority.
**About the Author**
Salman Rushdie is a British-Indian novelist and essayist, born in 1947 in Bombay (now Mumbai), India.
He was educated in England and he rose to international prominence with *Midnight’s Children* (1981), a landmark novel combining history and magical realism to depict India’s post-independence experience; it won the Booker Prize and is considered one of the most influential novels of the 20th century.
Rushdie is known for his imaginative prose, layered narratives, and exploration of themes such as identity, migration, cultural hybridity, and freedom of expression.
His 1988 novel *The Satanic Verses* brought worldwide attention and controversy, significantly affecting his life and career.
Despite these challenges, he has continued to produce acclaimed fiction and nonfiction, including *The Moor’s Last Sigh*, *Shalimar the Clown*, and the memoir *Knife* (2023), and is widely regarded as a major figure in contemporary world literature.
**About the Meeting**
We will approach the text thoughtfully and without preconceived agendas, experiencing it as a work of literature first and foremost—one that invites reflection, careful interpretation, and respect for diverse perspectives, without seeking to provoke controversy or advance any political or polemical stance.
**About the location**
It will be announced at least 2 days before the event takes place with all the details.
**Event contribution alert**
The event might require a small participation fee (3-5 euros) or the purchase of something to eat or drink in case we are hosted by a coffee shop. I will make sure to communicate that in advance.
FLINTA* Jam Session (Treptower Park)
-FLINTA\* Jam Session in the park
-take your music instrument with you and improvise in a relaxed atmosphere
-for beginners and experienced musicians
-space to meet people and opportunity to learn new music skills or to try out another instrument
-only takes place without rain
-1€ for my meetup payment as an organizer
-you can take a blanket for sitting with you
-I will post the exact location when I arrive (close to Gustav-Meyer-Denkmal)
I had a hard time finding an open jam session for beginners in Berlin. So I decided to create this group! I would like to have the space of exploring music together with other people in a relaxed atmosphere. You really don´t need to be a good musician. The only important thing is to really like music. I am not a professional musician. „Weird“ sounds are welcome.
Please write in the chat in case you have troubles finding the group.

"Die Holländerinnen" D. Elmiger (2025) / "Herz der Finsternis" J.Conrad (1899)

Wir widmen uns beiden schmalen Büchern jeweils einzeln und betrachten darüber hinaus ihre Verbindungen und Resonanzen.

Hier die Links zum Inhalt und Bücher :

Afterwards, join for lunch if you'd like (optional).
**Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️
* **To reserve your place, a ticket (€9,90/event) or a community pass (only €17,90/MONTH) [from the website ](https://pausify.org/)*www.pausify.org* is required**
* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms. We usually have about 50 to 100 people at each event.**
***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?***
Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.
Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover.
See pics from our events below - and on our Instagram: **[@Pausify (Co-Reading Space)](https://www.instagram.com/pausify_org/) ☕️**

Monthly Book Club Meeting - May
Dear Book Enthusiasts,
For our May gathering, we’ll be reading ***Broken April*** by the Albanian writer **Ismail Kadare**.
First published in 1978, this powerful novel is set in the remote highlands of northern Albania, where life is governed by the ancient Kanun — a strict code of customary law that regulates honor, hospitality, and blood feuds. The story follows a young man who has just committed a killing required by the code and now lives through the brief, suspended days before vengeance inevitably returns. Through this stark and poetic narrative, Kadare explores fate, tradition, violence, and the quiet tragedy of lives bound by inherited laws.
📅 Date & Time: 10.05.2026 at 15:00
📍 Location: Audrey coffee, Holzendorffstraße 18, 14057 Berlin
💬 Fee: As always, a 3 € contribution after the meeting helps cover organization costs
I’m very much looking forward to discussing this haunting and thought-provoking novel with you — and to sharing another thoughtful afternoon together.
Warmly,
Sofya

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
The Mercy of Gods by James S. A. Corey
Join us for TheMercy of Gods by James S. A. Corey.
How humanity came to the planet called Anjiin is lost in the fog of history, but that history is about to end. The Carryx - part empire, part hive - have waged wars of conquest for centuries, destroying or enslaving species across the galaxy. Now, they are facing a great and deathless enemy. The key to their survival may rest with the humans of Anjiin. Caught up in academic intrigue and affairs of the heart, Dafyd Alkhor is pleased just to be an assistant to a brilliant scientist and his celebrated research team. Then the Carryx ships descend, decimating the human population and taking the best and brightest of Anjiin society away to serve on the Carryx homeworld, and Dafyd is swept along with them. They are dropped in the middle of a struggle they barely understand, set in a competition against the other captive species with extinction as the price of failure.
Only Dafyd and a handful of his companions see past the Darwinian contest to the deeper game that they must play to learning to understand - and manipulate - the Carryx themselves. With a noble but suicidal human rebellion on one hand and strange and murderous enemies on the other, the team pays a terrible price to become the trusted servants of their new rulers. Dafyd Alkhor is a simple man swept up in events that are beyond his control and more vast than his imagination.
He will become the champion of humanity and its betrayer, the most hated man in history and the guardian of his people. This is where his story begins.
