Write Time Retreat 2026: Winter Edition

This retreat embraces winter as a creative season. Rather than pushing for resolutions or productivity, it invites participants to slow down, pay attention, and write without pressure. Winter offers a natural pause in the year, a moment when rest and reflection can support a more grounded practice.

During the retreat, attendees will move through gentle writing exercises that restore focus and encourage kindness toward their winter selves. The session explores fallowness as part of the creative cycle, considering how limited time or energy can still lead to meaningful work. Writers will look at place, process, light, and dark, with space to share loose, exploratory drafts if they choose.

At its heart, this retreat is about committing to intentional time on the page, supported by warmth, good food, and a welcoming creative community.
