We invite you to make your writing your priority!
Focus your time and vivid creative attention on YOUR writing while living in an environment bathed in beauty. This retreat is designed to give you generous time and an embracing space to work, and in the fun, wise and supportive company of Judyth Hill and your peers.
You will write and write and write, eat divine food, walk and rest….stretch….have inspiring, invigorating classes, as well as meet privately with Judyth to discuss anything coming up on your project. In addition, enjoy an adventure to the famous Ojo Caliente Hot Springs and Spa, and an afternoon with medicine man and potter, Felipe Ortega.

She is the annual Poet-in-Residence at various schools in the United States, and offers writing classes online, at www.judythhill.com.
