Write Space writing retreats create a supportive, structured environment within which writers can meet a writing goal.
Whether face-to-face or online the format is the same: writers of any style and level create a sense of community containing plenty of quiet space to make progress with their writing. The group reflects together on the writing process at intervals, and there will be a Centre for Academic Development tutor available for participants to to talk through their work if they wish.
Past participants have described Write Space writing retreats as 'stimulating', 'calm', 'good-spirited', 'constructive' and a 'productive place to work'. Some have been inspired by the experience to start their own writing groups. Perhaps you will too.
Our spring dates are now confirmed and a booking form for these sessions is linked below. Sessions generally run from 8.50 am to 4.00 pm.
Alternately, if you are interested in facilitating a writing retreat yourself, we would be happy to talk this through with you and share any relevant resources.
