I've always wondered what writing retreats/artist residency programs were like for a writer. Thanks for sharing a glimpse of how it's been for you. Maybe I should give a similar experience a try on of these days.

I’m not sure where you’re located, but people actually come from all over the world to this particular one. I think this is such a fantastic opportunity. It’s a really good chunk of time. Usually I think most residences are shorter and it’s so wonderful being in Taos, which is an artist colony. Let me know if you ever have any questions about it or want to know more but I really recommend this one. I would also like to go to Hedgebrook, which is for all women and I’ve heard it’s a magical place.
