RETREATS
Write with us.
What Are Writing Retreats?
At Writeshare, we’re always looking for new ways to provide community, accountability and support. Instruction is an important part of that. But sometimes what you need is simply time and space to write.
Writeshare Retreats offer one day, once a month, all-inclusive reservations at the studio where you can find the space and support to focus completely on your project. We’ll begin with coffee, snacks and a generative writing session with one of our regular instructors. You’ll have your own workspace at the studio. We have maps for a one mile walk in the neighborhood when you need to move, and one of the offices will be available for working discussions with other writers. Additional options include a box lunch, and 30 minute feedback sessions with instructors. End the day with peer-led conversation about an aspect of craft, followed by a social hour where you’ll have the opportunity to share the best line you wrote over the course of day.
It’s a functional way to step away from distraction, and devote yourself to your creative life with guidance, spark, and support.
We’ll meet January 24, February 28, March 28, and April 25.
