A Writing Retreat With Me
Finally, the details have been settled.
The one-day Writing Retreat will take place on September 7, a Saturday, at the Zuma Orchid Ranch in Malibu, California.
Here’s the link for details and to sign up for the Wait List: www.silentwritingretreat.com
Roda Ahmed and I will be hosting the event on September 7The subject matter will NOT be the craft of writing. I won’t be talking about structure or characterization or anything like that.
The day will be about the mindset that the writer/artist/entrepreneur needs to start and finish a project like a novel, a long-form nonfiction piece, a memoir, a biography, or any kind of album/game/startup that may take a year or two years … and that will have to be accomplished essentially ALONE, i.e. without an external supporting structure like a school, a corporation, or a community.
In other words: How do you go into a room all by yourself, with just a laptop, and face down your demons day after day after day until you have brought the project to its successful completion?
This will be a serious, hard-core, tough-love day. Don’t sign up if you’re just sightseeing. You’ll be wasting your money.
Come for real.
