A Sci Fi/Fantasy Writing Session
A Sci Fi/Fantasy Writing Session
**DUE TO LIMITED SPACE PLEASE ONLY RSVP IF ATTENDING. IF NO LONGER ATTENDING PLEASE UPDATE YOUR RSVP.** Join us in the upstairs room of the Grafton Pub in Camden for another writing-focused session. Bring whatever you’re working on, whether you’re outlining a new idea or deep into your current WIP. This is a space for writers to connect, share ideas, and find inspiration. Whether you’re looking for feedback, want to brainstorm with others, or simply need a quiet place to write, our goal is to build a supportive and collaborative community for sci-fi and fantasy authors at all stages of their journey. Writing will start at 6:30, but feel free arrive and leave at your own convenience! We will end at 8:30pm, but the pub is open till 11pm so after it ends people can mingle or go home as they please. **While we encourage collaboration and occasional chat we ask everyone be mindful of those focused on writing until 8pm.** **Also please support the venue by buying food or drink from the pub!**

Tuesday Tabletop Games at Premiere Cinemas
It's **Tuesday** & our main night of the week & the fun & games are just getting started here at DWL! We're located here in the Cinema (which can be found on the 3rd floor of the Mercury Mall Shopping Centre) on: * **Tuesdays & Thursdays**: From 17:30 to 22:00. * **Saturdays**: From 12:00 to 22:00 🦁 And we're still running every Monday 6pm to 11pm at the Golden Lion Pub too. 🌭☕ There are hot & cold food & drink options available from the cinema at low prices! Supporting Premiere Cinema by buying their food & drink IS supporting Dicing With Life! The cinema has been very generous to us by bringing us into their space & our way of showing our gratitude is by sending some business their way. And their menu is surprisingly cheap! Especially compared to any other cinema. Here's some cool examples of some great **offers**: Buy a large **Popcorn** (it's a huge bucket!) or a large **fizzy drink** & it'll initially cost you £4, BUT, take your bucket or cup back to the bar for a **refill** & the cinema will refill it back up to the top for just £2! 🍿🥤 That's half price Popcorn & Pop! This also applies to **Ice Blasts** too (£5 initially but to refill it's just £3). There's also Hot Dogs, Nachos, Pick n Mix & many other treats in store too! Check out their menu 😋 If you have any questions, please ask & let the fun commence! 🎲

Esoteric Tantra
More info here: [https://tarayogacentre.co.uk/tantra/](https://tarayogacentre.co.uk/tantra/ "https://tarayogacentre.co.uk/tantra/") Tantra is the path of realising the **Truth through the heart**, which is consciously opened to everyone and everything. It is an invitation to awaken now and to **live life in full awareness**, to enjoy its amazing intensity and **experience ecstatic happiness and freedom** in the midst of daily life. It is a path suited to those who wish to **live a full and meaningful life, to realise their highest potential**, and to **celebrate the ‘here and now’**. Tantra **embraces all aspects** of life consciously and courageously, with the tools and wisdom to realise that life, whether ‘pleasant’ or ‘unpleasant’, is our greatest teacher and ally.
Reel Philosophers - First Rule: Talk About Fight Club
Reel Philosophers - First Rule: Talk About Fight Club
\***Free with promocode** \- details below Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.” ​David Fincher’s 1999 film Fight Club tells us that even those of us whose lives appear successful and desirable tend to lack this significant “why”. We will examine how a crisis of meaning and fractured subjectivity drive the film’s characters to seek identity, authenticity, and meaning through violence and underground ritual. Together, we’ll ask whether Fight Club points to possibilities beyond nihilism, or merely exposes the dangerous seduction of creating meaning in a world that feels empty. ​**Please note that we'll screen film clips only, not the entire film.** ​Inspired by ancient Greek symposia, Reel Philosophers nights help sharpen **critical thinking** through film discussions, gently guided by professional philosophers. ​Philosophy meets art at the [Vorboss](https://vorboss.com/) office, connecting the local business community. ​*Vorboss is built for London, delivering world-class connectivity and tech services that are simple, transparent, and built for the future. We own our network and service end-to-end, and whilst others compromise, we don't: no contractors, no hidden costs, no nonsense. Our mission is to set a new standard for reliability and service in telecoms.* If you’d like to use the **free coworking space** before the event, please fill out the form [here](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc1ec7oyY2OSWnMznzbFBcxAERpNOchDu7nOpPsoIvo7DXXSQ/viewform). ​**Registration closes at 5 pm on 7 March due to building entry requirements**. ​**The Flow** ​9:00 Coworking (registration link above) ​17:30 Doors open: enjoy free drinks and mingle ​18:00 Join discussions led by PFA philosopher Anja Steinbauer and sparked by cinematic vignettes (no full screening) ​19:20 Curtain falls. Credits and reflections ​19:30 Socialising over drinks ​20:00 Doors close, yet conversations tend to wander through the streets and minds long after ​The office space accommodates up to 30 seated guests.

The Spawn London (Beginner Friendly Game) - Social Deduction on a Cosmic Scale
The Spawn London (Beginner Friendly Game) - Social Deduction on a Cosmic Scale
"Humanity's insatiable appetite to colonise reached far into the stars, but they learned the hard way that some stones should remain unturned. Whilst aggressively terraforming Spawn home worlds, humanity stirred the ancient species out of their slumber and incurred their rage in a cataclysmic event. Now conflict dances across the cosmos as the Spawn seek violent retribution by assimilating themselves among humanity and destroying them from within. Humanity’s only hope of survival is to detect the Spawn among them and destroy the threat." The Spawn is a large-scale elimination-based social deduction game where humanity must root out the Spawn which have infiltrated their ranks or be overpowered by them. Strategic gameplay, social subterfuge and gripping sci-fi all in one immersive experience. How to play here: [https://youtu.be/N9C65GQGohA?si=OlwcCbcAIGoQSsIf](https://youtu.be/N9C65GQGohA?si=OlwcCbcAIGoQSsIf) Find the rules and role sheet here: [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IWk9RN97Dt0lm7dfnsvL2G5Ne4L1VFNV?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IWk9RN97Dt0lm7dfnsvL2G5Ne4L1VFNV?usp=sharing) We always have more players than RSVP and are happy to teach newer members how to play in a friendly inclusive environment. Every player has a hidden role and every game has a moderator who can help guide beginners. Toxic, harmful or anti-social behaviour is not tolerated at these events. Moderators will ensure that games remain friendly and will not tolerate any personal attacks made to them or other players in games. If you experience or witness any behaviour like this at an event the quickest way to get it resolved is by reporting it to a moderator or you can also send a message to [[thespawnsocialdeduction@gmail.com](mailto:thespawnsocialdeduction@gmail.com)]([mailto:thespawnsocialdeduction@gmail.com](http://mailto:thespawnsocialdeduction@gmail.com/)) with your name and details of what happened where we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Blood on the Clocktower @OtterChaos
Blood on the Clocktower @OtterChaos
Join OverBoard to play the brilliant social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower in person at the brand new board game cafe Otter Chaos in Brixton. If you haven’t heard of Blood on the Clocktower before it is an evolution of classic party games like Mafia/Werewolf where a hidden evil team takes on the good team by lying and killing. The good team has a few tricks up their sleeve but will have to work together to deduce who the evil doers are in their midst. **This is a beginner friendly event so no experience with the game is necessary.** Please note that a gaming cover charge of \~£5 will be payable by each attendee to the venue so that we can make use of the space. We also encourage you to buy food and drink from the bar so we are supporting the business (I can highly recommend their pizzas!) If you want to know more about the rules of the game check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-aZP47Nm9g
