Join #MotownWriters Oct 11th - 13th, 2024 | for inauguarl Car Camping Writer's Retreat | 🏕️✍🏾❤️Limited spaces.
've taken my love for camping and writing and put them together in a small retreat for writers.
Would you care to join me?
Goal:
To camp out off-grid, surrounded by nature for writing sprints/inspiration, mini workshops, and networking with other local writers.
With the help of Brick House Studio, I'm honored to be able to bring a private event to you outdoors that I know we will all enjoy.
Wanted to get into camping but not by yourself?
Do you want to use the outdoors for inspiration in a small excursion not too far from home?
Want to go on a low-cost writing retreat that will not only teach you skills, and get you to network with other writers, but will create learning experiences you will keep with you for years to come?
Want to know more about car camping? Go to youtube and do a hashtag of #carcamping so you can look up setups for your vehicle.
Hosted by Motown Writers Network, Brick House Studio, and author, Sylvia Hubbard with guest facilitator, Kristine Brickey
Camping location: Brick House Studio,3142 W Kipp Rd, Mason, Michigan (exact location will be included in the payment link)
