Share a villa with sixteen other writers for a week of creative splendor in the Southwest of France. Escape to the beautiful coastal village of Arcachon with Julie and Sadeqa! In this unique opportunity, you’ll join not one, but two, bestselling authors for a creative deep dive south of Bordeaux. Every day our group of sixteen women writers will gather for a three-hour workshop in one of our two waterfront villas. Perched in this historical bayside community, the workshops will offer a combination of morning meditations, generative writing exercises, and roundtable critiques in a close-knit and nurturing environment. We’ll also be tackling five core craft skills: Character, Plot, World Building/Setting, Dialogue, and Revision. We’ll vary the groups each day to keep the energy fresh, and each student will meet with either Julie or Sadeqa for a one-hour private session. All genres are welcome.
