Memoir Writing

PLEASE, CONTACT ME IN ADVANCE! Anna: 651314706 Instagram: @cercleahimsa **Come join us to enjoy and share a session inspired by yoga and the energy of the lunar cycle.** Each week, we explore a different practice that aligns with the current moon phase (for example, Full Moon: gratitude; Waning Moon: letting go…) The heart of the session is the yoga practice, but we also include a deep meditation of at least 10 minutes, and we close the session with therapeutic writing or artistic expression as a way to integrate the experience. We are a small group of up to eight people, creating a safe and open space where, through the body and movement, we gently move closer to self-awareness and inner peace. Instagram: @cercleahimsa

No era el típico escultor de academia desde joven. De hecho, heredó el oficio de su padre: **era afinador de pianos**. Esta sensibilidad por la armonía y el sonido la trasladó más tarde a las formas. A los 50 años (en 1980), dio un giro radical a su vida: cerró su negocio y entró a estudiar Bellas Artes. Se instaló en su finca, llamada **"Casa Viva"**, en Dosrius, y durante más de 30 años se dedicó a "escuchar" al bosque. Su filosofía era mágica: *"Primero veo el lugar y después creo la obra para que se avengan; es como si el propio bosque pidiera la obra"*. 🌿**UN POCO DE HISTORIA** : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTymG9hqUtY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTymG9hqUtY) * **🌳🌿 \*\*!!

*We're excited to announce a brand new Coffee Club series where we help kickstart other clubs that Barcelona needs. Each edition, a Coffee Club member takes the reins and brings their community together. First up: **Zoja**, who would love to gather people from the Balkans, and Balkan lovers, for a cultural soirée. Excited to see you there xo Jenna* It's time to gather Balkan people and all the lovers of the Balkans. If you've ever had a Balkan friend, teammate, or neighbor, you already know what I mean, that unique character, the warmth, the directness, the humor that hits straight from the heart. You feel it immediately. It makes a difference. This isn't your usual coffee club. Inspired by how great it is to grab a coffee with a cool friend weekly, you will: **INVITATION: Saturday 04 April, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM @ in front of The Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, Pl. de Carles Buïgas, Sants-Montjuïc, 08038 Barcelona** * Meet up with high-quality, high-vibe people at Montjuïc in comfy clothes, and bring your best friend, especially if they're a Balkan lover (they need to be, right?) * Grab a drink, walk, explore, and embrace the beauty of Montjuïc together * Have an awesome chat \***OUR CONVERSATION STARTER FOR THIS EVENT IS "Teach me your favorite homemade meal, the one someone you love taught you…"** Let's talk about the thing every Balkan person misses most when living abroad: **FOOD.** The smell of home. The meals our moms and grandmas prepare the moment we walk in from the airport. Tell the story behind it. Let food connect us, as it always has in the Balkans. Because you're not truly Balkan if you don't enjoy food slowly, with all your senses. And let's laugh about that classic Balkan question every mom asks: *"Šta si jela?"* WHAT DID YOU EAT? Because in the Balkans, food equals love. You know exactly what I mean. * Zoja starts: *"My grandma always made me a quick tomato soup when I returned from long trips, something warm, simple, and full of energy. Not salmorejo, not gazpacho, just pure, comforting tomato soup."* She's shared hers. Now it's your turn. * **Why Montjuïc?** Because it's a place where cultures meet. Where water dances with light. Where the Mediterranean opens its arms to the Balkans. And because nature, sunlight, and laughter are daily essentials, and we want to share that energy with you. * Experience that happy, buoyant feeling that comes from an engaging, pleasant chat * Continue on with the rest of your day Just show up, bring your story, and let's begin this Balkan vibe journey. **Disclaimers:** This meetup is free, but logically you must purchase your own coffee or beverage at a nearby spot. The primary language of this meetup will be English; the organizer Jenna also speaks Spanish for any questions or needs, and Zoja speaks Serbian and Croatian, so we will kick that Balkan vibe. Note that while this meetup is in English, this is not an English language learning group, this is a way for incredible strangers (both locals and expat locals, we're about 50/50) to get together, chat, and connect about real topics. If you'd like, please provide a reason / intention for attending so that Jenna and Zoja can make this great for you. Jenna will be actively hosting this space so don't be surprised if she sends you out for a walk with a stranger, or changes it up a bit to encourage connection. Note that Jenna is intentionally keeping this group free and using the power of it to support local third-space coffee spots that bring people together in Barcelona. Be sure to join our **The Club** WhatsApp group after attending one of our Coffee Clubs to be connected with all of our people in Barcelona, in a no-spam, no-sales, genuinely just cool people meeting up, kind of way. If you'd like to support and/or team up with Jenna, buy her a coffee, check out her work at holajenna.com, or find her at the next coffee club and say the code word: kaleidoscope. **Meeting up in person! Saturday 04 April, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM @ in front of The Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, Pl. de Carles Buïgas, Sants-Montjuïc, 08038 Barcelona** **Who is shaping the experience of this group?** **Zoja** is a curious soul, a traveler, an explorer. Made in Croatia, raised in Serbia, wandering across Europe, and now living in Spain for two years. Somewhere along the way, Spain became home too, so now her heart carries three homes: Croatia, Serbia, and Spain. Maybe that hidden Spanish gene was always there. She's also an agriculturist, an ecologist, and a hidden writer. Nature grounds her, sunlight fuels her, and stories move her. She believes in the power of people gathering in open spaces, breathing fresh air, sharing laughter, and exchanging memories that feel like home. Serbians usually say: *"Rakija connects people."* This time, she wants to connect Balkan people and lovers of Balkan culture through something even more symbolic, a gathering in the open air, under the sunlight, in front of the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc. **Jenna** is a people person, and the founder of AMARIMA, a hot experience design consultancy crafting deeply resonant and immersive experiences that fuse multi-sensorial design, narrative-based hospitality, and behavioral design. She and her team work with some of the world's top hotel brands, experience-driven companies, and individuals to "turn up the dial on life." Among the many things she's done, she's traveled the world living out of a backpack, interviewed famous environmentalists in viral YouTube videos, written a book of travel stories that's in bookstores across the US, hosted multiple podcasts, guest lectured in media and storytelling at top universities, and coached and mentored thousands of people who want to live deep and fulfilling lives. Jenna also founded and chairs the mentorship organization The Human Board. With her home in Barcelona and work happening in cities around the world, Jenna hosts Coffee Club Barcelona to bring together high-quality, high-vibe people, and foster real community. holajenna.com We are waiting for you!

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!

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

**We are expanding our creative programming opportunities with Queer Quills, a quiet writing and sharing space. Queer Quills features some prompts, supplies and friendly faces to help get some inspiration or feedback for your writing. Hope to see you there!**
