Here’s a taste of what you’ll enjoy during the week:

• Workshops on engaging your readers, genre styles, narrative voice, and self-editing

• Island adventures from cultural tours to sunset cocktails by boat

By the end of the retreat, you’ll not only leave with completed chapters, and new ideas, but with a deeper understanding of your craft and a clear path forward as a writer.
