This premiere five day writing seminar is designed for aspiring and established scholars seeking to present their research at professional conferences and/or publish their work in refereed journals.

The retreat is based on a few simple premises: (1) a motivated, positive, and rigorous environment creates excellent work; (2) peer accountability and immediate feedback encourages productivity; and (3) scholarly work is enriched through collaboration.

The retreat includes a week of structured workshops on productive writing habits, style and grammar for professional journals, editing skills, and much, much more. Our goal is for each participant to arrive with a work in progress and leave with a manuscript prepared for submission.

“I cannot tell you how much sharper my writing has become as a result of that one week. Amazing.” —Natasha Gaffoglio, 2006 Participant
