Reminder: We have gone to every other year conventions (full of workshops) and writing retreats (time for writing)! This year we invite you to WRITE with us. Bring your own projects. Indulge in long days of writing, contemplating, taking walks, checking in with your fellow writers. We will have some prompts and motivation, but for the most part this will be a weekend for your self-guided time to write!
