When:
Where:
The
Time to
be Inspired. Time to Write. Time for
Yourself …
Event Coordinator, Deanna
Adams, invites you to a winter weekend filled with motivation, education, and
creation.
Whatever kind of writer you
are - fiction,
nonfiction, poet, or
creative writer – you’ll have the
opportunity to learn, write, and rejuvenate in an atmosphere of camaraderie and
warmth during the coldest time of the year.
This writers’ event will
give you the excuse you need to take time for yourself and your craft - while
meeting others who share your love for the written word.
Aside from the workshops,
you’ll have plenty of free time to
write, read, shop, and explore this quaint historic town – or simply do
nothing but absorb the knowledge and support of fellow writers.
Reservations are on a
first-come, first-serve basis. Those wishing to stay in this
unique Victorian-style Bed & Breakfast
should register early to ensure your spot and choose your room (accommodations
include Jacuzzis, fireplaces, and home-cooked breakfasts).
Join us and release your writing spirit!
