"The Book Dragon Ink Retreat was an incredible opportunity for writers like me to lock themselves in a writing camp and throw away the key - be inspired with ideas and craft tips all in the privacy of our own writing nook; no flights to catch, no baggage to haul, just sunny writing weather all around!"

“This retreat is a treat — serious pun intended. These three excellent facilitators work in great harmony to bring their unique approach to the participants. The result is immersive, productive, and, most importantly, tangible. This is a great opportunity to break the monotony of the lonely journey, learn great tools to write with joy and clarity, ask any craft questions, and meet your fellow writers in a supportive setting.”

“Kat … considers and understands my process as a writer. She's not shoving her own methods into my brain, instead, her suggestions are always tailored for the way I learn and write. She's allotted time for me to express myself, discuss my writing, and ask my questions. [It’s] an actual discussion between student and mentor, to improve not only my book, but also my writing and my process. I was honestly really shy about it at first, but Kat is lovely, friendly, and cheerful!”

"I popped in [to the coaching hours] when I realized I couldn't break through a bit of writer's block, and Sage talked me through it and reminded be that I'm not beholden to writing prose. I can outline or brain dump. I did that, and then I felt more comfortable going back to prose. I did fumble through describing my story, but Sage was really nice, helped me feel comfortable, and understood how I was feeling."

“This writing retreat was fun, informative and I got so much writing done. I took advantage of the book coach and developmental editor sessions and they were insightful and encouraging. I'm looking forward to future Ink Retreats!"

I have been feeling discouraged and overwhelmed about my writing, and this retreat was just what I needed to get back into a writing groove. I came out of day 1 feeling excited and eager to get going, and I came out of day 2 feeling encouraged and inspired."
