Writing in a Winter Wonderland: Kirjoituspäivät 20&21.2.2025

Info

Writing retreats provide an opportunity for authors to dedicate time to their projects while connecting with fellow writers. The Writers' House in Jyväskylä, created by Wivi Lönn, serves as the perfect backdrop for this collaborative writing experience.

The retreat runs from 9 am to 4 pm and offers an engaging environment. The cost for a single day is €70 plus VAT, or €120 for two days, which includes coffee, lunch, and a resource pack designed to enhance the writing process. Participants will also gain access to an online community where they can continue to write together on Wednesday mornings. A limited number of free scholarships are available for those who qualify. Each session accommodates a maximum of 12 writers, ensuring a focused and interactive atmosphere.

Participants can choose to attend for one or two days, and accommodation options can be discussed if needed.

Previous attendees have highlighted the positive experiences from the retreats:

The collective energy significantly contributes to the experience.

Being accountable to others encourages productivity, prompting one to write even on days when motivation is low.

These retreats effectively help participants commit to their writing goals, often postponed due to other responsibilities.

It has been a wonderful experience, enabling significant progress on personal projects while exchanging encouragement with peers.

This writing retreat is open to anyone eager to write alongside others in a unique setting at the Writers' House on Säynätsalo Island. Participants are encouraged to join for a day or two, and inquiries regarding accommodation can be made.
