City Owl Press Writers’ Retreat: Writing, Community & Editorial Guidance — Nov. 1–4, 2026
Join City Owl Press for an intimate three-night writers’ retreat designed to help you step away from everyday distractions and reconnect with your writing.
Held November 1–4, 2026, this small-group retreat is limited to just 12 writers and combines dedicated writing time with professional insight, creative community, and plenty of room to recharge.
Attendees will enjoy three nights of accommodations in a spacious private retreat home, along with focused writing time, sessions and conversations with a featured author and professional editor, shared meals and refreshments, community activities, and retreat surprises and keepsakes.
Accommodation options include shared bunk/trundle spaces, queen beds in a shared Double Queen room, and private queen and king rooms. Retreat pricing starts at $899, with a 40% deposit due at booking and the remaining balance due October 1, 2026.
Writers may attend solo or bring a friend. King and queen accommodations may be shared with an additional registered retreat guest, and groups of four may reserve the entire Double Queen room together.
This retreat is ideal for writers looking for focused creative time, supportive community, and access to publishing professionals in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
Travel to and from the retreat is not included. Space is limited to 12 writers.
