The Atlanta Writers Club, Georgia Writers Museum, and St. Simons Island Writers present a writing retreat designed to help you relax, recharge, and write!
Unlike many such events that are so intent on offering value that they overwhelm participants with activities, leaving no time for creative output, the AWC-GWM-SSIW retreat is designed to give you ample networking and learning opportunities while also providing long stretches where you can further develop your work-in-process, get inspired to start something new, or just rest and rediscover your muse.
