Book Writing

Join us for a **casual, low-structure, relaxed** 1.5-hour writing meetup designed for writers who want to connect with others in a supportive, no-pressure environment to come and go as you wish, whenever. Whether you're a poet, novelist, blogger, or write in non-natural languages, we welcome every night owl! **What to Expect:** Nothing structured, this is a casual Schelling point for people who happen to write at night. If you are looking for a large group, high-effort, strongly organised event, this is probably not the one for you. If there are new members joining us, we'll start with some introductions, dive into focused writing time on your personal project, and then, optionally, share a short reflection about our writing at the end. **What to Bring:** * A writing project * Something to write with (notebook and pen, laptop, tablet - whatever you prefer) * A curious mind **Finding Us:** Look for the corner table

Feel free to join if you are interested in low level computer stuff. If you have any cool projects or ideas you wanna share, bring them along

As AI coding assistants and agent frameworks continue to evolve, tools such as **Claude Code**, **OpenClaw**, **Hermes**, and **ClawPro** are changing how developers design, build, review, and operate software systems. Beyond the tools themselves, the foundation remains consistent: **data, MCP, reusable skills, security, and workflow design**. In this meetup, we will explore how teams can transform accumulated SOPs, internal knowledge, and development practices into reusable AI skills, preparing ourselves for the next major breakthrough in AI-driven software engineering. ## Topics ### 1\. AI Ready: From Claude Code to OpenClaw\, Hermes\, and Agents of the Future This session will introduce the direction of modern AI-assisted development and agentic workflows. We will discuss why **data, MCP, and skills** remain consistently important, and how developers and organizations can turn existing SOPs and operational knowledge into practical AI-ready assets. ### 2\. ClawPro Product Introduction: Security and Application A practical introduction to **ClawPro**, including its application scenarios and security considerations. This session will cover how ClawPro can support developers and teams when building AI-powered workflows and automation. ### 3\. How ClawPro Saves Tokens Token usage is one of the key operational considerations when building AI applications. This session will explain how ClawPro helps optimize token consumption and improve efficiency when working with AI agents and large language models. ### 4\. Demo: CRM / Review Bot A live demo showing how AI agents can be applied to real business and development workflows, including CRM-related automation and review bot use cases. ## Event Details **Date:** Wednesday, 6 May 2026 **Time:** 19:00 – 22:00 **Venue:** 17/F, Honest Building, 9-11 Leighton Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong (In-person event) From CWB MTR exit A **Sponsor:** Tencent Cloud **Capacity: 30 ppl.** **Speaker:** Chi Zhou, Director of Tencent Cloud Compute **Language:** English **F&B🍕:** Provided **Organizer:** Open Source Hong Kong ## Who Should Join This meetup is suitable for developers, AI engineers, solution architects, product managers, technical leads, startup builders, and anyone interested in open source AI tools, MCP, agentic workflows, AI coding assistants, and enterprise AI adoption. ## Registration Seats may be limited.

**Join us with your favourite books! Meet up with bunch of curious minds. Let’s take a sip and share about what we are reading!** **During the book sharing session, we will take turns to share about what we’ve been reading. You can also share some excerpts from the book as well. The conversation starts there. Hopefully by learning about others reading interest we can expand our own original reading scope.** **Later on, we could also reflect and share about our last month’s reading habits and methods etc.** **Book swap is not compulsory. If you have books to give away, feel free to bring them along and we will be happy to take them for future events.**

This is a regular Bring-Your-Own-Book session, where participants share and present to the group non-fiction books they have read. New members are welcome to attend to listen to and discuss the presentations of others. Usually a meeting takes around 2.5-3 hours. During this time we discuss 2 different books, roughly 1 hour per book. Any non-fiction material: a book, documentary, or lecture or a part of it - anything with a title and an author and that contains some coherent ideas. Each presentation includes a summary of a book (15-40 min) and discussion (accordingly). The meeting will be either in a park or in a coffee shop, on HK side. The exact place to be confirmed with the attendees **by WhatsApp only**. I will / have sent the link to the WhatsApp group, please use the link. Introvert friendly. We have people from different countries, so while books can be in any language, the language of the meeting is English. There is a fee of 20 HKD for the first timers to help funding the Meetup membership needed to run the group. Do not hit "Attend" if you are not going to attend. If you RSVPed, but there is anything preventing you from going to the meeting, remember to tell the host as soon as possible and/or update the RSVP - before the RSVP is closed, to give other people a chance to take your spot. But if you plan to attend, do hit "Attend", please :))) No-shows are all silently noted with much disapproval and will be removed from the group.

WHAT IS ONE-SHOT SATURDAY? It's a weekly meet-up in Sheung Wan/Central, focusing on indie games and single-session games (one-shots). 而家所有游戏係英文嘅但如果你要嚟玩中文游戏，我哋會無任歡迎。只要湊啱玩家就行！ You can drop in and play at any One-Shot Saturday – you do not need to have played in a previous session or commit to playing again. Whether you've played an RPG before or not, you're welcome to join us. Please arrive on time as once the games begin it becomes difficult to properly introduce latecomers. Join the conversation, make plans, suggest games to play, etc. — Facebook group: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/oneshotsaturdays/](https://www.facebook.com/groups/oneshotsaturdays/) \*\*\* WHAT IS A TABLETOP RPG? It's a game in which you never know where the next stop will be, because it’s all down to the decisions you and your fellow players make. Usually one person is the Game Master (or "GM"). Everyone else will be players, taking the role of the characters in the game. The players get to say what their characters say, think, and do. The GM describes everything else in the world. Then... we play to find out what happens. The game is a conversation: I say something, then you reply, maybe someone else chimes in. We talk about what's happening to the characters we imagine and the world around them. We also talk about the rules, which help us decide what happens next if the next step is in doubt. The rules differ from game to game: some use dice to shape the story, others use cards or something else. It's always a conversation, though.

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

**Our May novel is: *The Quiet Librarian* by Allen Eskens** **This month’s book is set in the 20th century and mixes historical fiction with suspense and thriller elements. It also centers on women’s stories and relationships. The novel is 368 pages in print or 8 hours and 12 minutes on audiobook.** Hana Babic is a quiet, middle-aged librarian in Minnesota who wants nothing more than to be left alone. But when a detective arrives with the news that her best friend has been murdered, Hana knows that something evil has come for her, a dark remnant of the past she and her friend had shared. Thirty years before, Hana was someone else: Nura Divjak, a teenager growing up in the mountains of war-torn Bosnia—until Serbian soldiers arrived to slaughter her entire family before her eyes. The events of that day thrust Nura into the war, leading her to join a band of militia fighters, where she became not only a fierce warrior but a legend—the deadly Night Mora. But a shattering final act forced Nura to flee to the United States with a bounty on her head\*\*.\*\*

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.

Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you.

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.
