? THE EXPERIENCE
We’ll gather at a hot spring resort near Death Valley, just 90 minutes from Las Vegas, for a lightly structured weekend designed to help your nervous system soften and your words flow.

Expect:
• Daily writing rituals
• Long soaks in healing waters
• Guided visualizations &amp; breathwork
• Optional gentle yoga (I’m a certified RYT-200)
• Nature walks, silence, rest
• Simple vegetarian home-cooked meals
• An intimate group of ~10 writers

Write what calls to you. Memoir, fiction, poetry, essays, erotica, lyrics, ritual writing. Anything is welcome.

Come as you are. Write as you are.

? WHAT THIS IS (AND ISN’T)
This is not an academic workshop.
There are no critiques, no grammar lessons, no red pens, no required sharing.

This is:
• Writing at your own pace
• Support without judgment
• Space to write what you’ve been holding
• A break from hustle culture and productivity pressure

You might write in the shade, in the tub, in silence, or in tears. That’s all welcome.

? WHO THIS IS FOR
All genders. All ages. All levels of experience.

If you’ve ever felt marginalized or out of place in writing spaces, please know: you belong here.
This retreat is LGBTQIA+ friendly, trans-inclusive, and actively anti-racist.

? COST &amp; ACCESS
Sliding scale: $275–$375

? WHY IT’S SO AFFORDABLE
I keep this retreat intentionally grounded: simple food, modest accommodations, and no luxury markup. This work should be within reach.

? MY GUARANTEE
If you arrive open-hearted and leave feeling stuck, unseen, or unsupported, I will refund you. Fully. Your experience matters to me.

This retreat is an invitation to slow down, soften, and reconnect with your wild, honest voice.
