Tuscany Writing Retreat - May 11, 2024

A Writer Within in Tuscany

What could be better for your writing than getting away from the stresses of everyday life? A writing retreat held in a beautiful location where all your needs are taken care of might be the answer. We will welcome you with open arms, and in the company of like-minded women, all you have to do is relax and reconnect with your creative flow.

What we'll do:

~ Each morning, we will explore the craft of writing through plot, dialogue, characterization, imagery, and more. As you become curious about story ideas, inspirations, and blocks, you’ll discover and embrace your unique vision. 

~ As a reward for your hard work, you will enjoy a buffet lunch on one of the villa’s terraces. Your afternoon will either be free to do as you please, relax/write/explore, or a professionally guided excursion will be scheduled.

~ Additional writing sessions will be scheduled on afternoons without excursions.

~ I will schedule a private consultation with you to discuss your work on one of your free afternoons. The retreat also includes a second consultation via phone with me at some point post-retreat.

~ Before dinner, we will gather in the outdoor living room to enjoy an aperitivo and admire the sunset.

 What's Included:

• One week of luxury accommodation in a private villa
• All meals
• All beverages, including wine
• Mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks
• Evening aperitivo
• Daily writing instruction
• Two private consultations with Kathryn – one during the retreat and one post-retreat phone consultation
• Professionally guided tours
• Local wine tasting
• Transfer to and from Florence by private shuttle
• Unlimited Inspiration (priceless)

It's not a question of whether you have a writer within—it's a question of how to set her free.
