Hosted by Michele Young-Stone, author of three critically acclaimed novels, Lost in the Beehive, Above Us Only Sky, and The Handbook for Lightning Strike Survivors.
I designed this RETREAT to be what I crave as a writer: a time away to discuss craft, to meet and commune with other writers, and more than anything, a time to set worries aside, be inspired and WRITE, so whether you are looking to meet other writers or escape for a weekend and WRITE, this is the place for you.

About Michele: She received her MFA in fiction writing from VCU and teaches for the Muse Writers Center in Norfolk, VA. She has published three novels with Random House and Simon and Schuster and has written a fourth, as yet unpublished. She is currently revising her fifth novel.
Michele is a firm believer in the revision process. Nothing is ever finished. It is just set aside. Each time we revisit the world we’ve created, we gain a deeper understanding of that world, our prospective reader (the world at large), and ourselves. Writing is about taking what’s inside ourselves and putting it on paper in a way that translates and affects the reader.
It is a holy, solitary life-affirming endeavor.
During this retreat, Michele will offer prompts and guided writing exercises. Writers will have the opportunity to share and build community.
