Rephrase Writing Club – Amsterdam, March 11th 2026.
Join us for our monthly writing club in Amsterdam. We want to create an inspirational space for people who want to write, share, and connect with fellow creative spirits at a local café to slow down. We’ll meet on March 11th from 20:00 to 22:00. Location will be shared in March. We prefer to leave laptops at home to take a break from screens, so make sure to bring your notebook. Pen, paper, and a shared love for writing is more than enough. Our editors will be there if you want to talk — we'd love to see what you’re working on, as always.
