About the writing retreat
Have you always wanted to write a book but don’t know where to start? Or do you have a half-written manuscript that you just can’t find the time or motivation to finish? This writing retreat is your chance to kickstart your creativity and to focus on what can be the most challenging part of writing a novel: just getting it done.
The three-night tutored retreat will focus on some of the common barriers to turning a dream of writing into a reality, such as creative block, imposter syndrome and how to plan in a way that’s helpful to you. We’re delighted to collaborate with bestselling author, Libby Page, who will host the event. This ‘Get It Done’ writing retreat brings together Libby’s professional experience with a chance to unwind and recharge your creativity in a beautiful, inspiring setting.
Whether your challenge is getting started or finding the time and headspace to finish your writing project, we hope you will leave this retreat feeling energised and motivated to get your writing project done.
About your host, Libby Page
Libby Page is the Sunday Times bestselling author of three novels. Her debut, The Lido, was published in more than twenty territories around the world and is being developed for film. Libby wrote The Lido while working full-time in marketing, so is no stranger to the struggles of finding time to write. She lives in Somerset, where she now juggles writing with taking care of her young son.
Besides writing, Libby loves wild swimming and being outdoors in nature. She is passionate about championing creativity and encouraging others to find their voice. Which is where the idea for the Get it Done retreat came from!
