Writing Retreats
Tropical Writing Retreat in Puerto Rico!
If I just had a block of time dedicated to writing… It’s true, time is often the biggest obstacle to reaching our writing goals or hitting our deadlines. Whether it’s fiction or memoir, first draft or final edit, on this retreat you will enjoy the structure, accountability and support for your writing to FLOURISH. You’ll be guided through writing prompts and encouraged to take your next step from an experienced fellow writer. Together we will talk writing opportunities, agent searches and publishing strategies, all while enjoying a tropical paradise. Stroll back from snorkeling at the perfect beach, rinse the sand off your toes in the outdoor shower, and relax in the cool ocean breezes while you plot your next scene. Enjoy morning coffee on the front porch with the sound of waves lapping on the beach.
Creativity needs room to breathe and frolic.
When not writing, your biggest problem will be to decide whether to stand-up paddleboard over the gorgeous reef, nap in the hammock or explore beautiful Rincon. Spend a pleasant evening in our beautiful backyard cabana or experience the fresh seafood and other local delights at one of the many waterfront restaurants. The art scene comes to life downtown every Thursday for the “Art Walk.” Bring a desire to write, relax and have fun – we supply everything else!
