Escape to Denman this summer – it’s the perfect place for an indulgent Summer Writing Retreat. Make 2016 the year you dig out that unfinished writing project languishing in a drawer, or come and begin something completely new. Join tutor led inspirational classroom sessions, discuss your writing, receive constructive feedback, and work in ‘one to one’ sessions with W.I. member Chrissie, whose TV scripts, short stories and articles have been published in UK and abroad. Write in the elegant drawing-room or in your own comfortable ensuite bedroom. Write by the lake; in the summerhouse; the herb garden or anywhere in the 17 acres of beautiful grounds. We’ll be working on memoirs, life stories, short stories, sketches, plays, articles or novels, no experience of writing is required and beginners are welcome.
