Join Indiana Writers Center and Angela Jackson Brown for this one-day writer’s retreat. Although we still have to practice social distancing, why not give yourself the gift of a day of writing and workshopping about writing: a quiet day, in a virtual room, surrounded by a small group of other like-minded writers?

This One Day Writer’s Retreat will nudge you out of your typical writing patterns by helping you to exercise your creative muscles in a new way. The goal for the day will be to help you break through to new insights and new ways of working through your creative ideas.

Angela Jackson-Brown, Ball State University faculty member, poet, novelist and playwright, will lead you through several mini-writing lessons, with quiet writing time interspersed. Jackson-Brown has used this approach to writing on her own and other writer’s retreats including the three day writing retreat she led for the Indiana Writers Center during the summer of 2019.
