The Botsworth Dossier and Writeaways Meet & Greet
Going to AWP? We hope you’ll join us Friday evening at our off-site meet-and-greet for Writeaways and The Botsworth Dossier at the Hilton Garden Inn Baltimore Inner Harbor.
Meet the Author: John Yewell
Author and journalist John Yewell, a fourth-generation Californian and co-director of Writeaways Writing Workshops, draws on decades in journalism and a lifelong love of storytelling to explore The Botsworth Dossier—a witty, insightful novel that blends humor, history, and heart in examining modern America through the lens of unrequited love, mountaineering, and the tumultuous world of print journalism.
Writeaway in Italy
How do you become the writer you've always wanted to be? It takes a villa. Join us in Tuscany for a weeklong writing workshop-retreat with John Yewell and Mimi Herman.
Writeaway in New Mexico
They call it The Land of Enchantment for a reason. Prepare to be enchanted. A week of writing, workshopping and great food and drinks in beautiful Tesuque, New Mexico, near Santa Fe.
Weymouth Writeaway
Join the writers of Weymouth: Thomas Wolfe, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sherwood Anderson—and you. Spend a week with your muse at The Boyd House, home to writers for a hundred years—and rediscover your writing with John Yewell and Mimi Herman.
Writeaway in France
Why write at home when you can write in a castle? Find your je ne sais quoi in a weeklong writing workshop-retreat at Chateau du Pin in the Loire Valley of France.
