TWO-DAY, BRING-A-BUDDY VIRTUAL WRITING RETREATS and MANUSCRIPT DISCUSSIONS

Based on Connie’s popular in-person retreats, these virtual gatherings restricted to two writers per retreat provide dedicated writing time, workshops, daily guidance, accountability, and a supportive community all without leaving your home. Do you have a writing buddy? The two of you should join one of the Bring-a-Buddies!

• Daily craft-based videos or audios arrive in your inbox every morning of the retreat.

• Each retreat morning, participants write in the privacy of their homes.

• Participants gather in the afternoons for virtual workshops in which we explore the material written that day.

• Designed for maximum immersion, these retreats/discussions are limited to two writers. If you have a writing buddy, reserve your dates! Or spin the wheel and work with Connie and a new writing friend.

CANCELLATION POLICY

We understand emergencies happen and empathize with those facing challenges. We are a small, boutique workshop because we feel learning and inspiration takes place more readily in intimate, nurturing settings. That also means that cancellations place a particular burden on us. We are only able to refund tuition fees, excluding the deposit, if we are able to fill your spot with another writer.
