Develop your book, play, story or screenplay in this dynamic writing workshop and retreat, with NY Times best-selling authors and literary agent.
Story and manuscript development come alive at this acclaimed, professional workshop for authors of fiction, nonfiction, screenplays, plays and poetry. Develop your book, start a new project, fine tune your manuscript, or perfect your writing in progress. Writers of all levels attend to generate new material, develop ideas, or shape their stories. The Dun Leary Writers Retreat is hosted by the Rohm Literary Agency and led by NY Times best-selling author and literary agent Wendy Goldman Rohm. Ms. Rohm's acclaimed conferences have been held since 2002 worldwide, originally inspired by the series of honorary Masters Teas she presented at Yale. Writers are guided through the creation process, fine tuning and perfecting their work--from the seed of an idea to a high-quality book map or draft. The conference includes all sessions, continental breakfast and optional networking soiree and group dinner. Writers book their own rooms at our venue, or nearby. We can help you with that if you write to us at [email protected]. See the Testimonials page for reviews from authors worldwide. *** Wendy Goldman Rohm has taught and lectured for MediaBistro, Yale University, onboard the QEII, and numerous universities and organizations in the US, Europe and Asia. She has presented her writing workshops for novelists and nonfiction authors since 2002 across the U.S., Europe, Asia and India, featuring numerous guest artists. |
