Netherlands Retreat

France Retreat

Amsterdam Workshop

I am currently hammering out the details for an exciting personal narrative writing retreat in The Netherlands, where I have dual citizenship and live. Most likely this will take place over four days in October 2025, in a farmhouse in a charming village located in the Hoge Veluwe National Park. It will include lodging, meals, workshop, relaxing activities, and individual conferences with me, and focus on unlocking your creative spirit and personal narrative writing as a tool for understanding the self. If you are interested in joining us and want to be notified when it opens for booking, please let me know!
Coming soon! Kelly Dwyer, a fellow instructor at the Iowa Summer Writing Festival (she in fiction, I in narrative nonfiction) and I are planning a retreat to France. Information will appear here when details become available. In the mean time, if you are interested and want to be notified when it opens for booking, please let me know!
Coming soon! Weekly in-person writing workshops in Amsterdam!
