What we’re about

Welcome to Writers in Leipzig, a weekly gathering for anyone who loves to write.

Whether you're working on a novel, a blog post, a memoir, a screenplay, or even a PhD thesis, this group is for you. We welcome all types of writers and all languages. It doesn't matter if you're a beginner or a published author; what matters is that you show up, write, and support others doing the same.

Our goal is simple: to help each other build and sustain a consistent writing habit in a friendly, no-pressure environment. We meet once a week to write together, share our progress, and motivate one another. No critiques, no pressure to perform; just a supportive space for focused writing and creative energy.

Come as you are. Bring your notebook or laptop. Order a coffee if you’d like. Stay for the writing, stay for the people.

Group Guidelines:

  1. Be kind and respectful: All writers and all languages are welcome.
  2. No judgment: Share if you want to, stay quiet if you don’t.
  3. This is not a workshop: It’s writing, not critiquing.
  4. Bring your own tools: Pen, paper, laptop, or typewriter; whatever works for you.
  5. Focus first: The 1-hour writing time is distraction-free and silent.

We’re here to show up, write, and support each other. That’s it. Simple, honest, and consistent.
