The Woodshed Files: A Literary Apothecary Retreat for Restoration, Ancestral Connection, and Transformative Creativity
The Woodshed Files Writer’s Retreat is an invitation to carve out sacred time for your writing practice. We encourage you to view these four days as a portal, a space where language flows unencumbered and creativity takes center stage. It’s a rare opportunity to engage with your craft on a deeper level, allowing your stories to reveal themselves to you.
The sacred retreat space opens April 17th and closes April 24th, 2024.
Retreat Highlights:
Daily Nature Walks: Start each morning with a guided stroll through the breathtaking terrain. Let the crisp mountain air and rustling leaves invigorate your senses, opening your mind to creative possibilities.
Ancestral Apothecary Experience: Discover the secrets of local flora as we explore the healing properties of herbs and plants unique to the region. Engage in hands-on experiences and learn to craft your own natural remedies to fuel your creative process.
Dedicated Writing Studio Hours: Immerse yourself in uninterrupted writing, reflection, and the exploration of your unfiltered voice.
Fireside Gatherings: Each evening, we gather around a crackling fire to share stories, insights, and laughter over delicious carefully curated culinary experiences. These communal moments provide the perfect setting to connect, reflect, and draw inspiration from fellow writers.
Closing Salon: The pinnacle of our retreat, the Closing Salon is a space where participants showcase their work. Share excerpts from your writing with a supportive and engaged audience, fostering a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie.
Who Should Attend: Serious writers who are dedicated to their craft and currently working on a book or manuscript. Whether you’re a seasoned wordsmith or an emerging talent, The Woodshed Files welcomes those who are committed to their literary journey.
