Range ton téléphone et plonge dans une matinée pensée pour ralentir, un stylo à la main. Il y a une magie particulière dans le mouvement physique de l'écriture, le grain du papier et le rythme lent de la pensée qui devient encre. Dans notre quotidien numérique, nous avons rarement l'occasion de savourer ce geste. Cette Writing Party est une invitation à te déconnecter des écrans, à libérer ta créativité et à rencontrer des personnes qui partagent cette envie de ralentir. Une petite échappée dans un monde où le temps t'appartient enfin. Le début parfait pour ton week-end. ✨ *** **À quoi t’attendre** ✍️ Un moment de calme rien qu’à toi pour écrire dans ton journal, entamer une lettre ou avancer sur un projet personnel. 🎨 Une courte initiation pour porter un regard neuf sur tes outils d'écriture et ton propre rythme. 🤝 L’occasion de rencontrer d'autres passionnés de l'écriture et du papier. 💬 Un espace sans pression, sans notifications et sans hâte. 📵 Un vrai moment de déconnexion pour repartir l'esprit ressourcé. 🇫🇷 🇬🇧 **Français & Anglais friendly** — tous nos événements sont bilingues, tu peux donc parler (et écrire) dans la langue dans laquelle tu te sens le plus à l'aise. *** **Le Programme** * **10h00 – 10h30 \|** Arrivée & installation * **10h30 – 11h30 \|** **Temps d'écriture (manuscrite) en silence.** Ton moment pour écrire sans aucune distraction. *Note importante : Cet événement est garanti sans écrans.

Pas de panique si tu n'as rien sous la main : nous mettons à disposition du papier et des stylos sur place. *** **À propos de ton téléphone** Ton téléphone sera mis en sécurité dans notre « hôtel pour téléphones », et nous en serons les gardiens. Mais sache que si jamais il venait à disparaître comme par magie, à apprendre à voler ou à tomber en panne de manière mystérieuse, The Offline Club ne saurait en être tenu responsable. Tu n’es pas tout à fait prêt à t’en séparer ? Pas de souci : éteins-le simplement, range-le bien à l’abri des regards et oublie-le. *** Nous aimons les lieux qui nous accueillent ! Ta consommation sur place est le meilleur moyen de les remercier de nous recevoir. *** On a hâte d'échanger du temps d'écran avec du temps créatif avec toi! Offline hugs, Stefania, The Offline Club Paris *** # 🇬🇧 **English version** 🇬🇧 *** ✍️ Join The Offline Club at Le Kawaa du Lucernaire for a creative morning with our: **Offline Writing Party**. Lock your phone away and immerse yourself in a morning designed to recharge you, one word at a time. There is a special magic in the physical movement of writing, the texture of the paper, and the slow rhythm of a thought becoming ink. In our digital world, we rarely get the chance to savour this act. This Writing Party is your chance to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz, and meet like-minded people while rediscovering your writing through a completely different lens. A little escape into a different world where time finally belongs to you. The perfect start to your weekend. ✨ *** **What to expect** ✍️ (Me-)time to write in your journal, start a letter, or work on a personal project. 🎨 A short session to look at your writing tools and your own pace with fresh eyes. 🤝 The chance to meet and connect with fellow writing and stationery lovers. 💬 A space where connection comes easily — no rush, no pressure, no notifications. 📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled. 🇫🇷 🇬🇧 **French & English friendly** — all our events are bilingual, so you can comfortably speak either language *** **The Program** * **10:00 – 10:30 \|** Arrive & Make Yourself at Home. * **10:30 – 11:30 \|** **Writing in silence (Handwritten only).** Your time to enjoy undistracted writing. *Please note: This is a screen-free space. Laptops are not permitted; we celebrate the beauty of handwriting.* * **11:30 – 12:30 \|** Connect With Others (only if you feel like it). * **12:30 – 12:45 \|** Offline hugs and goodbye *** **What to Bring** Your favourite journal, stationery, or pens... bring whatever moves you to write. Don't worry if you don't have your own supplies; we will provide paper and pens on-site. *** **About your phone** Your phone will be kept safe in our "phone hotel" — we'll be its guardians for the evening. But just so you know, if it were to mysteriously disappear, suddenly learn to fly, or break down in an inexplicable way, The Offline Club cannot be held responsible. Not quite ready to part with it? No worries — just switch it off, tuck it away out of sight, and forget about it. *** We love and appreciate the venues that host us! Please remember that your consumption gives them one more reason to love us back! *** We can’t wait to swap screen time for real, creative time with you! **Offline hugs,** **Stefania, The Offline Club Paris**
Sunday Writing Session
Sun, Sep 13, 8:00 AMA weekly writing session brought to you by Paris Lit Up. Every Sunday morning, we get together at Neuvième Sauvage for two hours of writing. There are no exercises, workshops or assigned prompts. The idea is simply to have a regular time and place to sit down, work on whatever you’re writing, and do it in the company of other writers. Bring whatever you’re working on—fiction, poetry, nonfiction, a screenplay, an essay, or anything else—and whatever you like to write with. Laptops, tablets, notebooks and pens are all welcome. From 10:00 to 12:00, we write. There’s no pressure to share your work or talk about what you’re writing during the session. You can simply grab a coffee, find a seat and get some words down. Neuvième Sauvage also has good coffee and some nice breakfast options if you’d like something while you write. At 12:00, once the two hours of writing are over, those who want to stick around are invited to share what they’ve been working on. You can read something aloud, talk a little about what you’ve been writing, or just listen. Other participants are welcome to offer some light feedback, and it’s also a chance to chat and socialise after the morning’s writing. The Sunday Writing Sessions are free to attend. Neuvième Sauvage 20 Rue Gérando, 75009 Paris Sundays, 10:00–12:00 When you arrive, go up two levels. You’ll find us on the top floor. All genres and levels of experience are welcome.

Right Bank Writers’ Group — French-to-English Translation Workshop
Sat, Sep 26, 2:00 PMA literary translation workshop brought to you by Paris Lit Up. On the last Saturday of every month, the Right Bank Writers’ Group turns its attention to the art — and occasional impossibility — of translating French into English. Together, we’ll work on a French-language text and explore the different ways it might live in English. We’ll compare choices, discuss tone, rhythm, meaning and style, and tackle those words and expressions that never seem to have one perfect translation. This is a collaborative workshop: there isn’t necessarily one “correct” answer, and the discussion is as important as the finished translation. You do not need to be a professional translator to join us. Writers, translators, language lovers and anyone curious about the relationship between French and English are welcome. Bring something to write with. Any texts or materials needed for the session will be provided. La Chope des Compagnons 86 Quai de l’Hôtel de Ville, Paris Saturdays, 16:00–18:00 (4pm–6pm) The workshop costs 5€, which helps Paris Lit Up cover the cost of renting the space.
