you’re a writer. now get to Boston and write.

(I'm unsure how to sync up my voice with my mouth in this video, so just imagine that I'm speaking in Russian on the video and that you're hearing the English translation! Also not sure why it chops off before the end. Should end with "I'd love to see you there!")

I'm honored to teach with Susan Piver and Jen Louden again this fall. We're bringing our popular "Walking into Fire" writing retreat to BOSTON on September 23-24, 2011, and you won't want to miss it! Full of writing, laughing, and creating a community of writers, this is a magical event.

Here's what a few folks said after our last "Walking into Fire" retreat:

“Three beautiful women who happen to be stunning writers, talking about writing. What more could one want? The chance to sit in the same room with Jen, Patti, and Susan was 100% privilege. To be mentored and guided in tangible and generous ways was gift beyond-belief. And to experience their presence and companionship with me in the writing process, inspired and invited more than I could have imagined or hoped. I now write more – and better. Further, I believe more deeply than ever before that what I have to say must be said.”  –Ronna Detrick, www.ronnadetrick.com

“Writing often feels like this mysterious craft that nobody will explain (except to tell you to “just write!”). Yes, “just write” is part of it. But there are more parts too, and something in me relaxed to receive these clues to the next steps beyond just showing up at the page. This workshop answered a need to know what good writing is–what I’m aiming for — and to know that there is a process I can follow to produce it.”    –Emma, www.emmamccreary.com

    Wish I could make it, but that’s the same weekend as a standing family trip each year. I’ll follow you to see when I can catch another one. Want to attend and be energized. ;-)

  • For those coming to Boston for this, PodCamp Boston also happens that Sat and Sunday. http://podcampboston.org/ PodCamp Boston is the original unconference for social media. All are welcome to learn and share and collaborate on using the various social media tools. I’ll be there to welcome you at the registration desk.

  • I am registered and have travel all booked. I’m looking forward to it and meeting the others who decide to attend.

  • I would love to come to this… I LOVE Boston… but the hotels are too expensive. Can’t afford fancy city hotels! Maybe you could have it in Stamford next year? Cheap hotels, near White Plains (for flights) and lots of trains out from NYC and Boston?
