I just thought I’d let everyone know how good the Wentworth
Castle Writing Retreat was this year as it was an entertaining, informative,
fun, writing weekend.
We were lucky enough again to be blessed by the lovely,
sunny weather as well as some excellent workshops run by Julie Bokowiec and
Leonora Rustimova.
But best of all for me was meeting a bunch of new, enthusiastic
creative writers who all got into the spirit of the event both literally and
socially. It is a great way to network and share thoughts and ideas with like
minded people and generally make new friends from other writers groups and see
what they are up to. I had a great time.
A big thank-you to Chris Huck for organising the event, as
usual he did us proud (except when he had us racking our brains for his
literary quiz! Very painful, I have a lot to learn and read.)
And thank-you to everyone who sat and listened to my little
presentation / book launch about Fishcake Publications. You were very patient
and enthusiastic about the work I’d done and I hope you enjoyed it. I enjoyed
getting your feedback.
I even managed to get some writing work done of my own
(beware zombie novel coming soon!) This is a gift in these very busy times that
we live in! But the surroundings and atmosphere certainly help.
If the event runs again, I’ll definitely be trying my
hardest to get there.
