Writing Your Draft

This retreat is designed for writers who have a clear idea of what they
will write about and are ready to spend sustained time doing so.
On-site facilitators and editors provide support for writers.

The retreat is designed to accommodate writers at all
levels of development.

-
long stretches of time to write
-
response from writing group members
-
one-on-one conferences with
editors and facilitators
