Writer’s Retreat

Join Leeana Tankersley, writer and speaker, Elaine Hamilton, licensed therapist and founder of the Soul Care House, and Angela Scheff, literary agent with the Christopher Ferebee Agency, for a weekend writer's retreat in the unparalleled beauty of Orcas Island, Washington.

The weekend will consist of main sessions full of information to help you improve your craft as well as navigate the writing industry. You will have the opportunity to pitch your work to a literary agent, as well as participate in group processing with a therapist in order to help you get unstuck. Writing exercises and writing time will also be available.

In addition to specialized writing support, we will also share gorgeous evening meals provided by holistic chef, Taryn @the_botanical_kitchen, we will head into the woods for contemplation, and there will be plenty of free time to explore and rest.

Please arrive by 4:30pm on Apr. 2 to check in, find your room and get yourself settled. We will begin with dinner at 6pm. We’ll finish with our last session the evening of Sunday, Apr. 5th then spend one more night together. April 6 we’ll make our way home. Those who are traveling from outside of WA may need to catch an early morning ferry but if you are traveling a little later, you are welcome to join us for morning coffee and a causal processing time. We’ll need to leave the property by 1:00pm.

Women writers of every experience level and genre are welcome!
