Storied North writer’s retreat open for pre-registration

WritingCommunity.ca is excited to announce a new Canadian writing retreat coming in spring 2024!

The Storied North Writer’s Retreat is an opportunity for writers to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life so they can focus on writing in a uplifting, edifying environment.

Located one hour from downtown Toronto, this 3-day event includes writing workshops, one-on-one coaching, writing blocks, and ample down time to rejuvenate in a country environment with a plenty of fresh air and room to roam.

At this time, the program is geared towards writers of children’s literature, but the skills you will learn and the time you will have to write transcend audience and genre. Author/illustrators will also benefit from time at Storied North.

The host of Storied North is our founder, Jes Trudel. She spent 15 years as a freelance writer, editor, and storytelling instructor prior to becoming a literary agent with The Rights Factory. She has taught workshops to thousands of people around the world and organizes writing events in her local community and she has always wanted to run a retreat that brings writers together and lifts them up.

Currently, Storied North is open for pre-registration only. As this is a new event, it’s important for us to gauge the level of interest in the event overall. There is no cost to pre-register. Once enough pre-registrations have been gathered, emails will be sent inviting people to officially register and pay their fees. We currently estimate the cost for the retreat at $599 CAD per person, assuming all slots are filled.

If you would like to pre-register for this event, visit the Storied North page and fill out the form. You will also find more specific information about the event there. Bookmark it so you can stay up-to-date as details are firmed up.
