who is this for?

The Writer’s Corner is for the fantasy writer who is:

✒️ just starting out and wants accountability to stay focused

✒️ working on a novel or a series and wants to take it to the next level

✒️ writing short stories, novelettes, poems and wants to feel supported in the process

✒️ has a self-published book and wants to be a part of a group of like-minded people

No matter what stage you’re in, there is a place in this group for you.

You don’t have to do it alone.

Usually when we write, we are alone: just us and our thoughts. The Writer’s Corner is a way to feel a little less isolated in the process of writing, because community is so important for writers, too. This is the group you’ve been looking for to bounce ideas with, vent about a part of your story that you’re stuck on, and rant about a new idea you have.

live out the found family trope in real life

Here’s what our guests are saying:

  • "These girls will always be in my life and we’re all already planning our next adventure together."

  • "Returning to fantasy reading in my 40s helped me fall in love with myself all over again, to feel brave, and curious, and look at the world as brilliant and expansive. This retreat was proof of how special it is to share that experience with others."

  • "(Forest & Fawn) held space for a whimsical, enchanted, delightful, this-feels-like-home, magical experience for all of us!"

  • "Without trying to sound dramatic this was life changing."

  • "Being surrounded by so many wonderful women, bonding over a shared interest, and existing in a beautiful location brought back a piece of magic in my life that I’d been struggling to find."

  • "I now have soul sisters that I will have for the rest of my life, you can’t put a price on that. "

  • "I’ve never had this type of connection with a group of people before. I found my tribe."

  • "This quite honestly was the most amazing experience I have ever had."

  • "I felt comfortable, welcomed, and just that I could generally be myself, and I cannot say enough amazing things about this community."
