Imagine this: you’re sipping a cappuccino in a medieval piazza in Florence, your notebook open, pen poised. The warm Italian sun glows over the rooftops as inspiration flows as effortlessly as the espresso in your cup. But this isn’t just about writing—it’s about turning your words into a career.
At The Art of Writing Retreat this July, we’ll help you refine your craft and learn the business of writing. Writing is an art, but it’s also a profession, and knowing how to monetise your work is just as important as crafting beautiful sentences.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ How to craft stories that sell – Discover what agents, publishers, and readers truly want. Learn how to shape your work into something marketable while staying true to your voice.
✅ Mastering the pitch – Whether it’s a book proposal, a social media post, or a freelance pitch, we’ll teach you how to grab attention and get results.
✅ Social media for writers – With the incredible Georgette Jupe (@girlinflorence) as your guide, you’ll learn how to build an authentic online presence that attracts readers, agents, and opportunities.
✅ Making writing work for you – From freelancing to publishing, we’ll explore multiple ways to turn your passion into profit.
This retreat isn’t just about inspiration, it’s about action. You’ll leave Florence not only with pages written but with a clear writing strategy.
Limited spots available! If you’re ready to take your writing from passion to profession, join us in Florence this July.
