Join the Writers Rising Retreat – with Anne Lamott, Cheryl Strayed & others!

If you’re a fellow or aspiring writer, today’s post is for you!

The people behind the Writer’s Room have organized a pretty amazing retreat that you won’t want to miss.

Writers Rising 2024 , running from October 25th through 27th, is sure to be an unforgettable experience that will ignite your creativity, nourish your spirit, and deepen your connection to yourself and others.

I do what I do for all these reasons, and because I believe that writing heals. It helps us process our emotions, identify lessons from our experiences, and feel a greater sense of clarity and control in our highly uncertain world.

It can also enable us to take a break from consuming and get lost in the magic of creating, pushing us deeper and deeper into that blissful state of flow where time stands still for a while.

Whether you’re an experienced writer or just starting out,  Writers Rising  can offer you a supportive and inspirating environment where you can explore your voice, express your truth, and tap into your inner wisdom.

Featuring keynote speakers such as Anne Lamott, Cheryl Strayed, Gay and Katie Hendricks, Jen Pastiloff, HeatherAsh Amara, and other luminaries in the world of writing and self-development, Writing Rising promises to be a weekend filled with insight, inspiration, and connection.

Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect:

• Experiential keynote workshops with renowned authors and thought leaders
• Silent writing sessions to dive deep into your creative flow
• Open mic readings where you can share your work and connect with fellow writers
• Workshops and breakout sessions covering a range of topics including overcoming writer’s block, finding your authentic voice, and harnessing the power of storytelling
• Opportunities for group coaching and feedback on your writing
• Fun social gatherings to connect with like-minded individuals

Plus, if you’re unable to attend in person, you can join in the live stream for an affordable rate so you can participate in the retreat from the comfort of your own home—anywhere in the world!

Whether you’re seeking inspiration for your next writing project, looking to heal and grow through the power of storytelling, or simply craving a weekend of self-discovery and connection with fellow writers, Writers Rising  has something extraordinary to offer you.

Early Bird tickets expire on May 31 and spaces are limited, so I highly suggest you secure your spot ASAP if you’re interested!
