What will you receive by joining us for a Writing Table Mini Retreat?

• Time to write – the best part of the Writing Table is having designated time to write. In this Mini Writing Retreats you will have an extended time, and you can write humanely without binging or rushing!
• Planning Ideas – with each Retreat you will receive a planning document to help you set up for your time at the Writing Table. By planning ahead you will be able to maximize you accomplishments and set up momentum to keep your writing going.
• Accountability to a community of writers – this makes the writing time both easier and more fun, honestly.
• Better writing habits – you will be building your habits and becoming an everyday writer. Daily writing is a proven path to more writing and publishing.
• Focus on process – at the Writing Table you never have to say what you are working on; the focus is on the how of getting writing done; certainly some writers share the what of their work, and occasionally we do a show & celebrate week;
• Breathing and intentions – at points during the retreat we will take time for centering breath work, focusing on intentions, and silence for writing in twenty-five minute pomodoros (aka POMS). Research tells us that 25 minutes is an optimal amount of time to focus before the mind and body need to reset. The retreat is organized into poms to maximize focus and attention on your project.
• Camaraderie –  you will not have to write alone, but with fellow writers.
• Encouraging and supportive coaching – we will take a little time to share strategies at the end of the writing retreat, and Eileen offers gentle coaching and encouragement.
• BONUS – If you choose to attend all three retreats you will also receive a personal coaching session with Eileen.
