Women Writing by the Sea A weekend retreat for readers, writers & thoughtful life travelers

The words that flow from our pens weave meaning thorugh and among our life experiences.  This meaning grows into wisdom and healing and, often, beautiful works of art.  Learn to summon, present and arrange pieces of your life and inner history into a rich memoir full of surprises.  You will outline a book project, write drafts of some passages and leave with inspiration to keep you going.
