The Fiction Workshop
Welcome to the Shanghai Writing Workshop. We are interested in everything related to creative writing, and we hope you can join us.
If you're interested in joining, you'll need to join our wechat chat group to let us know if you're lost on your way to the meeting. You can wechat me at texaswriter, and I can get you added. I also encourage you to scan the QR code above to join our official wechat channel. There you can get detailed directions on how to find us, how to sign up for our website (www.shanghaiwriting.com), and details on how we function.
There's a new short prompt available on the website that's updated for each meeting. Try and post a response a few days before meeting if you want others a chance to comment on it.
You also don't have to submit. Readers are always welcome, but I do find that reading before meeting greasy increases the joy of going to meeting.
No experience required. We are a mixed group in terms of experience, backgrounds, and languages, but I find that we are also very supportive of each other in everything from goals to reading to publishing.
In addition to the standard workshop, the Shanghai Writing Workshop hosts two writing retreats a year, puts forward a team for the three day novel writing competition, hosts a reading series called Shanghai Voices, and puts together an ebook anthology of work at the end of every year. We're always doing something, and if you have any ideas, we're always up for anything literature related.
Once again, if you need help getting setup, contact me on wechat, texaswriter, and I hope to see you at the workshop.

Saturday afternoon Language Mix in Changning 长宁
Language Mix is back on Saturday! We're all about getting a drink with interesting people from different linguistic backgrounds. This event is for speaking ANY language--don't worry if you don't speak Chinese!
***
How does it work?
---
Simple. You just find the registration table when you enter, put on some flag stickers that represent your native language and the languages you want to learn, get a drink of your choice, and use the stickers to find someone to talk to! We recommend showing up on time if possible, but any time is fine.
We encourage you to stand during the event so that you can easily move and talk to different people :)
***
When and where are we meeting?
---
This meetup will be at Cotton's on Xinhua Road, Changning, one of the best garden bars in Shanghai! See the address bar for more details on how to get there.
周六下午,Cotton's棉花酒吧(新华路店),超美的花园老洋房噢!
***
Is there an event fee?
---
Entry is 50元.
Entry is payable when you arrive with WeChat 微信, Alipay 支付宝 or cash.
***
Is there a WeChat/微信 group?
---
Yes/有! EDIT: It seems that the group now has 100 members and won't accept new members by scanning the QR code. If you'd like to join the group, just add Nancy on WeChat, who has volunteered to help add people in.
Nancy: zcn1107
Just write "Shanghai Language Mix" when you send a request.
不见不散!

You can add my WeChat by scanning my QR code above.
All final arrangements and event details are shared on WeChat. I will add you to a WeChat group.
***MAKE MONEY, LEARN ENGLISH, MAKE CONNECTIONS!***
Hi, my name is Karen. I am from Zhejiang and I graduated from the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom. I currently run a startup in the 3D printing industry and organize offline entrepreneur meetups in People's Square, Shanghai.
This is **not** a language-exchange event. Please do not attend if your sole purpose is to practice English.
However, if you have an entrepreneurial mindset and a basic working level of English, this event may be a very good fit for you. Our meetups are bilingual (Chinese and English) and focused on startups, business ideas, and real networking.
Some of our members are native English speakers who also speak fluent Chinese, either because they use Chinese at home or have studied at universities in China. There is always someone willing to help when you have difficulty expressing your ideas in English.
If you want to pitch ideas, make meaningful business connections, and improve your practical business English in a real-world setting, you are very welcome to join us.
📍 **Location:** People’s Square, Shanghai
🗓️ **Time:** Saturday afternoon
💴 **Fee:** 50 RMB (includes unlimited beer & soft drinks)
**如果我说我的MEETUP创业者人脉交流活动在上海排第二,没人敢说自己的排第一 :)**

Build a Large Language Model from Scratch
Join us for another session of our study group as we dive into the fascinating world of Large Language Models (LLMs) using the book **Build a Large Language Model from Scratch** from Manning. In this session, we will finish **Chapter 7: Fine-tuning to follow instructions**. In the last session, we talked about how to prepare the dataset for instruction fine-tuning and in this session we will perform the fine-tuning and evaluate the model afterwards.
This isn't just a lecture! Come ready to ask questions, share insights, and code along. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this is the perfect opportunity to build a strong foundation together. If you plan to work with the code on your own laptop during the session, try and set-up the environment ahead of time (https://github.com/rasbt/LLMs-from-scratch/tree/main/setup).
We will be meeting at the North County Governmental Center this time that is across from the Reston public library.
Beginner-Friendly Japanese Speaking Practice & Study Group [FREE]
This meetup is for Japanese learners who want to practice speaking in a relaxed, supportive environment without pressure or perfection. It's also a great place to meet people with similar interests!
If you’ve studied vocabulary or grammar but freeze when it’s time to speak, this session is designed to help you bridge that gap.
**What we'll do:**
* Simple self-introductions in Japanese
* Guided speaking prompts (you won’t be put on the spot)
* Light pair or small-group practice
* Optional review games or activities to support speaking
Mistakes are expected and encouraged. You’re welcome to use notes, look things up, or listen more than you speak.
**Who this is for:**
* Beginner to early-intermediate learners
* People who want to practice speaking without pressure
* Anyone who feels like they “know the material” but struggles to use it
No high-level Japanese required. Just come as you are.
Parlons français!
Bonsoir à tous! Venez nombreux pour causer autour d'un repas ou d'un verre chez La Madeleine. On n'a que deux règles: (1) qu'on y parle exclusivement le français et (2) qu'on achète quelque chose à boire ou à manger (c'est La Madeleine qui le demande). Merci et à bientôt!
