Following the popularity of our May Writing Retreat 2024 at beautiful Rydal Hall, when we were so lucky to have author and poet Grevel Lindop to inspire our writing, I have decided to run a New Retreat weekend in mid-September at Rydal, as I have been lucky enough to

secure a slot.


I have asked eminent author, poet and biographer Kathleen Jones to work with me on a new Writers Retreat looking at Life Writing and Autobiography, and I am thrilled that she has accepted. We have often worked together with great success. Kathleen is the author of

A Passionate Sisterhood which explores the lives of the women around Wordsworth. The first volume of her much-anticipated new autobiography, Reading my Mother will just have been published. Kathleen grew up in Cumbria. It will be so exciting to inspire the whole

weekend with this theme through poetry and prose.



It will be slightly shorter this time, finishing after lunch on Sunday, rather than after breakfast on Monday which is our usual pattern on the Retreats.


Do hope you can make it!
