Creating A Writing Life Retreat for Emerging Writers $150/pp

Creating A Writing Life retreats for emerging writers have been produced by award-winning writer, Patricia Ann Chaffee since 2007. The event is refreshed, renewed and ready to inspire writers in all genres and levels of ability at the new Seastar Wellness Studio. The retreats offer a small group experience, with like-minded souls to celebrate and honor a passion for the writing life. The program features the opportunity to share the writing journey, time to write using prompts or work on a piece already in progress, and to learn from a celebrated author, or expert in the literary field. 

The guest speaker for this event is New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Nan Rossiter. Rossiter is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and began her writing career in the world of children's books later moving on to contemporary fiction. Her books have been highly acclaimed and her novel, Summer Dance, was the 2018 winner of the Nancy Pearl Award. Weaving together stories about complicated relationships, she draws from her own life experience to tell tales that captivate her readers.
