A
ROOM OF YOUR OWN (AROYO)
If
you’re like me, you love the act of writing beyond measure.
But your life is packed to the gills with work, children, household
needs, a thousand things.
IMAGINE
HAVING THREE DAYS & NIGHTS DEVOTED TO NOTHING BUT YOUR
OWN WRITING?
Ripe
Fruit Writing wants to give you this opportunity.
A ROOM OF YOUR OWN is a working writer’s
retreat --- you might want to think of it as a writing vacation!
You bring the manuscript, the draft, the ideas. We give you the time and the
space: the uninterrupted quiet, the privacy of your own room. We give you guidance,
focus and momentum. You give each other the best of all gifts: feedback, literary
companionship, & mutual support.
At peaceful Santa Sabina in
San Rafael, Each writer will have their own room with a desk, bed, sink, closet,
reading chair and view of either the courtyard or deerpark.. It is a writer’s
dream!
Nothing
to do but write. Mornings are for writing. Afternoons are for writing ( or taking
country walks). Evenings are for writing (or reading and sharing each other’s
work in the gorgeous Pillow Room, discussions about editing & publishing,
etc).
Write
all night if you like!
