Writing Critique

**✍🏻 Run away with the Girls Who Write club this summer and make time for your writing – this will be a long weekend to remember!** Barcelona in the summer is the vibe...however, it gets really touristy, hectic and sticky...Imagine getting away from it all to a beautiful secret mansion to focus on your writing, while everything else is being taken care of! A long weekend to slow down, put pen to paper whenever you want, read by the pool – and meet like-minded women who love writing as much as you do. **Whether you're visiting or a local, this is the creative escape you need this summer.** 🏡 We are gathering in a perfect secret spot in Barcelona: far away from all the noise, but close enough to the center in case you want to get in and out on your own. Our beautiful hillside mansion features AC, pool and sauna – and nine individual rooms perfect for resting. You'll feel like you're away in nature...while being two metro stops away from all the buzz :) Here, nothing will distract you from writing! **📚 What you'll be working on?** Whether you're exploring self-discovery through journaling, crafting a memoir, creating short stories or poetry, or finally bringing that long-planned book to life, I aim to offer you a safe, nurturing space to connect with your words and creativity. Dive into cherished childhood memories, share fascinating anecdotes from your life that could inspire a captivating story, or pour your deepest emotions onto the page and witness how your perspective transforms. I believe every woman is a natural-born storyteller, and every girl's life is a compelling book waiting to be written. **Let’s uncover yours!** *What to expect:* 📝 **Journaling Workshops**: Dive deep into your emotions, memories and experiences through guided journaling sessions, unlocking the power of self-expression and introspection under the guidance of Marusha, founder of [Girls Who Write](http://www.girlswhowrite.club/), [Naked Words](https://mashamozolevskaya.com/mynakedwords) and Barcelona Journaling Festival. 📚 **Writing buffet:** try creating a memoir, a profound dialogue, a book character based on a person dear to your heart *(even if you don't have any book in the works yet!)* and explore some controversial topics in a safe, supportive community. 🌅 Sunrise SUP at Barceloneta. The most magical thing you can do in the summer in Barcelona – watch the sun rising from the horizon and waking up the city, while gently rocking on the waves. It's safe and fun! You don't even need to know how to swim. Bring your journal if you dare :) ✨ **Deep Connection to Self**: Throughout the day, immerse yourself in moments of stillness and self-discovery, cultivating a profound connection to your innermost being and fostering a sense of inner peace and alignment. We'll enjoy guided forest-bathing (sinrin-yoku) and embodiment sessions as well. 🍤 **Amazing food!** We'll be served lovely meals cooked by our private chef. The menu is Mediterranean, organic, and absolutely scrumptious! We'll take good care of you...while you write :) **Please read the full retreat description [here.](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona)** More info on what kind of workshops to expect, the price range, etc [www.girlswhowrite.club/barcelona](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona) *Barcelona residents get a special offer – please do not hesitate to message the organizer.* 🔥 Please note that there are two retreat dates available for this summer: **12-14 JUNE and 3-5 JULY.** Choose what fits your summer plans best and let us know when you'd like to come.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

***¿Qué procesos se pueden seguir para descubrir una nueva una idea científica?*** La ciencia no avanza solo acumulando conocimiento, sino cambiando la forma de pensar. Ideas que parecían «absurdas», como la dualidad onda-partícula de De Broglie, han resultado revolucionarias. Otras veces, el progreso surge al conectar ideas: Einstein reinterpretó el universo y Schrödinger, en ¿Qué es la vida?, contribuyó a conocimientos que llevaron al descubrimiento del ADN. La analogía también juega un papel clave, como muestran los trabajos iniciales de Hofstadter. Esta charla explora cómo la imaginación y la intuición forman parte esencial del desarrollo científico. «Lo único verdaderamente valioso es la intuición». —Albert Einstein Charla impartida por: Begoña Casas 🎟️ Actividad gratuita ⚠️ Sé responsable con tu inscripción. ✅ Si no puedes asistir, por favor, cancela tu plaza para dar lugar a otra persona. 📲 Para cualquier pregunta puedes contactarnos al móvil: 686 22 62 84. \*\*\* Para garantizar el buen funcionamiento de la actividad y evitar interrupciones, se ruega puntualidad.

***[BUY THE BOOK HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/the-new-fatherhood/)*** Fatherhood is changing. A new generation of dads are rejecting the idea that being a parent should be treated like a side quest, and instead leaning all the way in. But what happens when men do that? And what still stands in our way? **Kevin Maguire** has spent five years exploring this question through his newsletter and community, [The New Fatherhood](https://www.thenewfatherhood.org/), and now in his first book. In this conversation, he talks about the shifting face of fatherhood—the identity crisis, the unexpected loneliness, and why the dads who are willing to be honest about all of it are building something genuinely new. Kevin will be in conversation with writer and journalist **Aaron Shulman**. About the speaker: **Kevin Maguire** is a writer, coach, and the founder of The New Fatherhood—a newsletter and community read by over 22,000 parents around the world. His first book, *The New Fatherhood*, is published by Hachette on May 28, 2026. He previously spent 15 years in advertising and tech, working with brands including Google, HBO, and Amazon, and lives in Barcelona with his wife and two children.

Emily Brontë's classic novel Wuthering Heights is generally considered a romantic portrayal of undying love. Yet, when first published most readers were appalled by its transgressive nature, "unfeminine" characters and insinuations of taboo topics. In this session we will discuss the historical and social context in which the novel was written and some of those transgressive features that continue to make it a hugely enjoyable and wild ride to read. This session will be led by Aurora. Bring wine/beer/drinks/food/snacks/whatever to share. **Our events fill up very quickly.

En esta conferencia exploraremos el patrón común que comparten ocho vías distintas de trascendencia, comprendiendo cómo cada una de ellas puede ampliar nuestra percepción, transformar nuestra conciencia y abrir acceso a estados de mayor claridad, lucidez y conexión.

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.

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.
