Have you been wanting to write a book, book proposal or pitch for months —  or even years — but haven’t found the time or the confidence to do it? Have you stalled in the writing because you don’t know if what you write is any good? 

How would it feel to move on from doubt to getting your first draft underway, your book finished, edited or pitch done? 

We can help you achieve all of this. With over 40 years of combined experience of writing, agenting and publishing, and with hundreds of books published and millions of words written, we’ve seen it all. And we’ve helped scores of wannabe authors like you to figure it out. From getting started to wrangling all the moving parts of a draft, to crafting an eye-catching proposal, and selling up a storm in the bookstores, we’ve got you covered. 

If you’re feeling stuck or anxious about writing and publishing, and need industry advice and support, our retreat will get you to the next stage of your writing journey safe, well-fed and sun-kissed.  Perhaps you feel that with a few days to yourself, you could get a juicy chunk of writing done, but how often does that happen? No matter how good your calendar organisation,  life has a way of filling up the hours. 

With our help you will have the time and a beautiful space to write and be lifted towards your goal.
