Writing

Bonjour à toutes et à tous, Pour ce mois de **mars 2026**, nous vous proposons un évènement regroupant la communauté métier Agile d’**Extia** et la communauté Agile Playground Paris : deux communautés, deux côtés, serait-ce l’occasion de parler de polarité ? Nous vous proposons donc d’explorer les **polarités** durant cette soirée et voir comment leur prise en compte est un vrai plus pour que l'**intelligence collective** puisse atteindre un vrai consensus, co-construit et assumé par toutes et tous. Laetitia THERNIER ([/in/laetitia-thernier](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laetitia-thernier/)) et Régis SCHNEIDER ([/in/RegisBob](https://www.linkedin.com/in/RegisBob)) proposeront un « crash test » de leur atelier "**Entre deux pôles, mon cœur balance… et c’est très bien comme ça !**" : Le piège, c’est de choisir un camp et de se crisper dans le « pour » ou le « contre ». Non seulement cela ne résout pas la tension, mais c’est souvent là que les relations se tendent et que l’élan collectif s’essouffle. Dans cet atelier ludique, participatif et joyeusement paradoxal, nous vous proposons d’expérimenter comment accueillir ces polarités, les mettre en perspective et apprendre à naviguer avec elles. D'autres propositions des personnes participantes pourront être proposées, sur le thème du soir, ou un autre, elles seront les bienvenues et auront leur place dans la soirée. Nous accueillons chaleureusement les personnes curieuses, et encore plus chaudement celles qui s’estiment débutantes ! L'agenda de la soirée : 18h30 : Accueil 18h45 : Brise glace et présentation des ateliers/jeux 19h00 : Ateliers/jeux 20h00 : Réseautage (on partage, on discute, on prend l’apéro) 20h30 : Ateliers/jeux 21h15 : Fin du Meetup Grâce à Frédéric ANDRE ([/in/fredericandrepro](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fredericandrepro/)) nous vous attendons le **jeudi 5 mars** dans les locaux d’**Extia** au 86 Rue Regnault, 75013 Paris (Métro 14 : Olympiades, Tram T3a : Porte d’Ivry ou Bus 83 : Regnault) En espérant vous y retrouver nombreuses et nombreux ! Les équipes Communauté Agile Extia & Agile Playground Paris

Paris Lit Up open mic (PLU) Every Thursday in English (other languages too – when in Rome, speak French) at the historic home of French Slam poetry, Culture Rapide (103 Rue Julien Lacroix, 75020). If you would like to read, dance, sing or otherwise express yourself, sign up is open and free to all, starting at 20.00-ish. We go until we drop or run out of performers! In any language. Or no language at all. No limits, just respect. Plus, each week featured performers from around the world are invited to strut their stuff before our rowdy but respectful audience. For this week's special guest, see: www.facebook.com/ParisLitUp Not in Paris? Join us online at "PLU Live on Zoom"! Every Wednesday from 9pm CET. Just like an open mic, but we chat a bit too.

*Parce qu’aucune maman ne devrait se sentir seule.* Mommy Club est un rendez-vous mensuel pensé pour les femmes enceintes, celles qui veulent devenir mamans, les jeunes mamans, et toutes celles qui vivent la maternité, à leur manière 🤍 Les mamans sont les bienvenues, et les mamies aussi — pour accompagner, partager leur expérience et transmettre leur douceur d’une génération à l’autre. Proposé chez Belle Aura, dans une atmosphère intime et propice aux échanges, ce moment permet aux mamans de se rencontrer, discuter librement et partager leurs expériences en toute simplicité. C’est une parenthèse dans le quotidien : venir seule si l’on en ressent le besoin, ou accompagnée de son bébé, poser ses questions, échanger des conseils et élargir son cercle. Les mamans peuvent créer du lien, s’entraider et construire petit à petit un réseau bienveillant 🌷 Il ne s’agit pas d’un atelier structuré, mais d’un moment libre, chaleureux et sans jugement. 🗓️ Le premier jeudi de chaque mois (5 mars) 🕓 De 16h à 17h ✨ Participation libre ☕ Une consommation sur place est demandée 📩 Pour confirmer votre présence, merci d’envoyer un message au 06 41 18 25 07 ⚠️ Conformément aux règles de Meetup, toute personne de moins de 18 ans participant à un événement doit être accompagnée d’un adulte responsable. ⚠️

This book club event's theme is about art, writing, and one's passion to create! It encompasses a lot of literature surrounding *Writing, Artistic Passion, and the cost of an artistic life.* Many questions can be addressed, amongst them: \- What is it to write\, to create? \- Whether to make the choice to follow our passion and our calling\. \- What would be the cost of such a choice? \- How do artists navigate through life? \- What does it mean to write? This is a themed book club with no required reading! This topic is a wide topic and can include many books that relate to the theme, or explore ambition, creativity, purpose, or the tension between desire and duty, etc. Bring your favorite book(s) that feel close to the topic and discuss your reflections, favorite quotes, and engage in cozy conversations. (You’re also welcome to bring a physical copy for our group book photo tradition.✨📖📚) If you would like to take reference, here are some suggested books that would fit within this topic: – *Letters to a Young Poet* by Rainer Maria Rilke – *A Room of One’s Own* by Virginia Woolf – *Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man* by James Joyce – *The Cost of Living* by Deborah Levy – *Just Kids* by Patti Smith – *The Writing Life* by Annie Dillard – *On Writing* by Stephen King – *Big Magic* by Elizabeth Gilbert – *The Artist’s Way* by Julia Cameron (And you can refer to many more!) P.S. I’ll reach out before the event to confirm attendance. Please cancel in advance if plans change so I can adjust the reservation accordingly. Thank you\~

Join us for our women's book club meet-up! The meetup address to be announced. Please note that as I'm going to be booking a table for dinner, the restaurant will be expecting that everyone orders something to eat. \*You will need to confirm your attendance through WhatsApp prior to the event. I will reach out to you personally though messages to add you to the WhatsApp chat\* Book details: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/231127462-my-husband-s-wife

Come and idle away the winter months with **Shakespeare’s Sonnets**! It’s never too late to discover, or rediscover just how dazzling, intimate, and endlessly surprising Shakespeare’s incredible body of 154 sonnets can be. Over the next three months, we’ll wander through some of the most beautiful, piercing, and emotionally complex poems ever written. Think of it as falling in love with Shakespeare all over again one cluster of sonnets at a time. **In March:** We enter the world of the late sonnets; the so-called “*Dark Lady*” poems, where passion becomes more complicated, desire grows knotted and sharp, and Shakespeare confronts the darker edges of sexuality and self-knowledge. These poems are bold, unsettling, and unforgettable. **Our cluster**: Sonnets 127–152 (the full Dark Lady sequence), with optional additions of 129 (“Th’ expense of spirit in a waste of shame”) and 138 (“When my love swears that she is made of truth”) for special discussion. Across the winter, we’ll read, explore, puzzle over, and simply enjoy these poems together tracing how Shakespeare moves from youthful radiance to emotional turmoil to the shadowy brilliance of his final sonnets. Hope you will make it! Maryama Antoine

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!
