Writing art that opens spaces and brings sentences to life
The open writing workshop with Nora Schramm brings literary curiosity, linguistic precision, and creative practice together on September 20, 2026, at Rosamunde. The four-hour workshop is aimed at everyone who wants to write, without the need for prior knowledge. Those who wish to explore literature not only by reading but through their own expression will find a concentrated and inspiring framework here.
An author with a distinctive voice
Nora Schramm is among the notable new voices in contemporary German-language literature. Her debut novel Hollow Spaces was published in 2024 and awarded the Kranichsteiner Literature Promotion Prize and later the Mara Cassens Prize. Her texts combine linguistic precision with analytical sharpness, humor with psychological tension, and everyday observation with literary condensation.
Writing as a literary experience
The writing workshop promises no dry theory, but rather an author encounter that leads into practice. Participants can explore their own writing voice, work on characters, scenes, and ideas, and experience how literary quality arises from observation, rhythm, and sentence structure. In a workshop with an author like Schramm, writing gains that closeness that transforms a mere impulse into a true literary experience.
Rosamunde as a place of closeness and concentration
The venue at Bochumer Straße 117 represents an open, urban cultural space in the heart of Gelsenkirchen-Ückendorf. Rosamunde is established as a meeting place in the district and provides the suitable setting for an afternoon where language, exchange, and focused work can come together. The atmosphere is intentionally designed to be accessible, approachable, and simultaneously productive.
Why it is worth attending
This writing workshop is aimed at people who do not just want to consume literature but want to put it into motion themselves. Between guidance, inspiration, and practical exercises, a space emerges where creative writing is revealed as part of cultural education. Those who love language will find new impulses, new perspectives, and the rare opportunity to encounter an award-winning author directly.
At the end, there will be an afternoon that ignites desire for one's own writing and sharpens the view for literary forms. Anyone wanting to experience Nora Schramm live and dive into her way of working should not miss this writing workshop.
