June 3-10, 2023 Sol's Cliff House, Bar Harbor, Maine
Congratulations! You've been invited to attend the retreat—can't wait to see you!
Your registration covers full tuition for all retreat activities, including private writing time, an intimate dinner with novelist Christina Baker Kline, a private coaching session with Joan, group work sessions and readings, craft talks, a special craft workshop with Maine novelist and teacher Cynthia Underwood Thayer, and downtime for relaxation and rejuvenation.
Your registration also includes seven nights at the exclusive Sol's Cliff House and all meals prepared by our private chef (excepting one "free day" for you to dine out in Bar Harbor or rustle up leftovers in the kitchen). Transportation to and from the retreat is not included.
All rooms are on the second and third floors of the retreat house. All have windows that open, and linens are provided. You'll share a bathroom with one other retreat-goer. The old house does not have an elevator, so unfortunately the house is not fully accessible to those who can't walk the stairs.
The most cost-effective tuition is to pay in full when you register.
If you'd rather the convenience of paying over time, you're welcome to pay in four monthly installments. Please note that this will cost an additional 15% of the tuition shown below, spread out over four installments.
Please click on "Check Availability" to see your payment options and secure your space by registering.
Book your own private room overlooking the ocean. Adjacent, shared bath with one other retreat-goer.
Give yourself the gift of time to finish your novel.
