Upcoming: Weekend Writer’s Retreat

January 30, 2012

If you’ve been thinking about writing a book for long time, but keep putting it off, or don’t know where to start, then a special weekend Writer’s Retreat taking place in February at Cambridge Beaches Hotel and Spa is for you.

Writing coach Jan Fraser has written three books and says the first one took her five years, the second one five months, and the third one only five days. Now she wants to share how she did it with other budding best-selling authors.

“Last month, I conducted a 5-day Writer’s Retreat in Las Vegas where 75% of the participants completed their book and the others are well on their way to finishing theirs” say Ms Fraser.

“I’m really excited about holding a retreat right here in Bermuda for those who have dreamed of writing their book but find it difficult to pull it out of their head and put it down on paper. I provide the motivation, techniques and methods that help authors bring their dream into a reality.

“I can’t guarantee participants will finish their book over this weekend” says Ms. Fraser, “that usually only happens in our 5-day retreat, but I will promise that with the tools I provide they will write more easily and swiftly and be well on their way with that best-seller that they’ve had bottled up inside them”.

“It’s very important to come to an isolated but beautiful and luxurious location such as Cambridge Beaches where we’re holding this event, to leave everyday worries and distractions behind and focus 100% on the goal of writing a book.

“Participants will find it uplifting to be here. The weekend will be a mix of sessions with me and quiet times when writers will go to their room, the beach or any of the other wonderful, private nooks and crannies around Cambridge Beaches to put pen to paper — or in these times it’s more likely that they’ll be working the keyboard of course”.

It all takes place at Cambridge Beaches Hotel & Spa beginning the evening of Friday February 17th until 4pm Sunday February 19th.

Before the weekend Ms Fraser provides a one-on-one personal call to each participant to help them prepare their materials as well as their mind for the weekend. There is also an optional Saturday morning follow-up session in March to assess progress, and discuss publishing and marketing techniques.

The fee to attend the Writer’s Retreat is $785. Cambridge Beaches Hotel & Spa is offering a special rate only available for Writer’s Retreat participants of $165 per night (plus tax), inclusive of breakfast.

Other special benefits offered to participants are complimentary Internet access, 15% discount on Ocean Spa Treatments and an upgrade to a deluxe room. All rooms will have water views.
