Have you longed to find the time to start to write your life story or submit something for publication?  Take a weekend away to indulge your creative writing dreams. 

Stay at The House on Water Street in historic Sperryville, in the foothills of the luminous Blue Ridge Mountains. You and your friends/family will have full and private use of this three bedroom, two bathroom renovated 1900 village farm house on a quiet street in the heart of the village. A self-serve continental breakfast is left in the house. In your free time visit wineries, a distillery, gift and antique shops and art galleries. Gourmet restaurants with casual dining are just around the corner. The kitchen is fully furnished.

Arrive on Friday afternoon.  On Saturday professional author Kevin G. Summers will lead you through an intensive 4-hour writing workshop (break for lunch) that combines writing fundamentals with practical knowledge. This class offers a chance to learn the nuts and bolts of getting published while improving writing through lecture, in-class exercises and professional analysis.

In the relaxed setting of the House on Water Street, your creative self can find renewed expression. 

We offer a 10% reduction in housing fee for groups of four or six.
