Is Your Writing Frozen This Winter?

A WRITING RETREAT ON TOPSAIL ISLAND, NC

House at Southern Shores, NC

 

Winter is a good time to write – less distractions, less daylight and less to do because of the colder weather.

Warm up your writing this winter with a long weekend at quiet Topsail Island in NC at the Winter Beach Writeaway with Mimi Herman & John Yewell.

Because sometimes writers just need to get away.

Spend a long weekend in a cozy house right on the beach, perfecting your poetry or prose with the help of other brilliant writers. The Winter Beach Writeaway is designed for writers of all genres and abilities, from beginner to MFA to professional. $400 per person includes double occupancy lodging, all meals, and wine.

Topsail Island, NC, Feb 27- Mar 2, 2015
