We are writers of all levels – beginners to published. And we meet at STARBUCK at IFC (P2 Shop2097-2098, International Finance Centre), Central for fun writing and sharing sessions! We all write a one-sentence prompt, then each select one at random. We write something based on the prompt for 45 minutes, after which, we share our work with each other and discuss as desired. Of course, sharing is optional but encouraged. (Feedback is always polite and respectful.) Alternatively, you can bring your own project(s) to work on in the company of fellow writers (published and yet-to-be published). You can share your project(s), too, if you want. It's all about creativity and productivity in a supportive environment! Any questions, just reach out to our organizers through Meetup.

**CLEAR MIND: One Day Silent Retreat with Gen Kelsang Tonglam** **Meditations will be guided in English.** **Sunday 22 March 11:30am – 5:30pm** Treat Yourself to a Day of Peace! Switch off your phone and take a break from your daily activities, gain a taste of retreat by spending a day in this blessed environment in the heart of the city. Normally we are constantly distracted by external objects, frenetic activities, disquiet thoughts and idle chit chat. Our mind is scattered and our experience of the spiritual path remains superficial. Observing silence is a powerful method to disengage us from this busyness and it leads us naturally to deeper levels of being. On this one-day silent retreat, we will learn to quiet our mind through meditation, and come to discover its true nature, clarity, and thereby experience a deep sense of inner peace. Fee: $220.
