WriteOut! - The First Time Around

(Free) Registration

To participate, send a $75 check as a deposit. If you attend every session in full, your check is returned to you at the end of the week and the retreat is free.

If you do not attend every session, your check will be cashed and used to fund the next retreat.

Uninterrupted Writing

Each WriteOut! Retreat lasts from 9a - 5p, Monday through Friday. No distractions. No childcare. No TV. If you have a hard time buckling down to write, this retreat will give you the chance to focus on your project for an extended period of time, with the support of your fellow grad students and a structured environment. 

Daily Accountability

Research shows that writers are more productive when they set goals, monitor their work, and check in with another person. Each day you'll do exactly that in a short non-judgmental meeting with a writing coach. You'll leave the retreat with a better grasp of your strengths and weaknesses as a writer and a set of strategies to help you move past writing barriers.
