What’s it about?
Discover the power of words – in community.
In this open group, we’ll read short literary texts together – poems, microtexts, or excerpts from longer works – and let them inspire our own writing.
After reading, we’ll take time to reflect and share impressions. Then we’ll write side by side for 20–30 minutes – drawing from words, phrases, or whatever is stirring within us.
The focus isn’t on writing technique, but on personal experience, a sense of connection, and the sparks words can ignite in us – especially for people who have been through difficult experiences, and for anyone seeking new perspectives.
At the end, anyone who wants to can share what they wrote during the session — but it’s just as welcome to simply listen. Sharing is always voluntary.
Participation is free – and no registration is required.
