Writers Retreats

AirPlay

We've all been there. You want to write and you know some day you'll get around to it.  When you can find the time...

But these are really just excuses.  So come and join us for just one Saturday a month for an urban Writers Retreat. And be inspired, because our retreat is in cool Fitzrovia in Central London - in the the pub where Dylan Thomas drank. Near where Anthony Burgess was inspired to write 'Clockwork Orange'. Next to George Orwell's favourite boozer and the Prole’s Pub from ‘Nineteen Eighty Four’!  Pretty impressive, eh?

It's inspiring for us and we think it might be for you too!  No experience is needed!  If you need help with your first Bridget Jones or Fern Hill, we're here to help you personally with suggestions and exercises. Or if you know what you're doing, we'll leave you alone!  It's up to you.

So join us for a bit of writerly 'tough love' from 11.30am (not too early - we're writers after all!) 'till 5pm - when the London Literary Pub Crawl - which you are welcome to attend - starts! There will be lots of power points for laptops. We have old and new iPad chargers and a couple of spare bluetooth keyboards. And paper and pens! And best of all, the wi-fi and phone signal is not very good. So do the research before you come. Our day is all about writing! And never forget, after we finish, if you don't fancy the Literary Pub Crawl, there's the bar for a natter and catch-up.

Most of the retreats will be hosted by Nick Hennegan, our award-winning writer.  But this is not a sharing or a writers group. It's for you to get your head down, forget the world and leave tired but satisfied on a writers high! There are no rules apart from that. And to force you to REALLY commit to allowing yourself time to write and attend EVERY month, there's a discount if you book for six months at once. Email for details.

You know you want to...!
