Paris as a Writer:
Rejuvenate and re-inspire your writer self with the experience of living in Paris, attending writing sessions along with plenty of time to live the life of the writer you've dreamed to be. These are each special 4-night, 4-day session on blocks and struggles as well as working with you personally on great starts or polishing the work you bring, held in Paris at a time only locals love it. Provided is extra time for numerous one-on-one sessions as well as for museums, cafes and parks and writing. You will stay with or near other attendees (no more than 10 workshop participants for maximum private sessions;) in a lovely accommodation no more than 10-min walk from our private flat and workshop venue. There are morning writing workshops (see left) and feedback on your work (or reasons for not working in the case of the Writer's Block workshop), followed by afternoons free for writing in cafes, exploring museums, cathedrals, parks. Partners are welcome to accompany you, may sightsee while you attend sessions and/or work and join us for the welcome soiree and farewell dinner (see details left). There is time built in for sitting at the top of the Musée D'Orsay or along the Pont des Arts, overlooking the city and the Seine, searching for inspiration in the light reflecting off the water. Workshops offer the potential addition of a Here You Begin mini-workshop on the 5th day to get you started living the life you've dreamed. Experience Paris as a writer, led by an award-winning writer and professional Editor who knows every corner and every great cafe to help you live like the writer you've envisioned becoming. This workshop when offered fills fast as it is half as expensive as others offered and provides more one-on-one time with your professional Editor/Mentor/Coach than any other.

The Rest of the Details:
All Explore/Write/Be Workshops
_As with all international travel, it is strongly recommended you purchase separate travel insurance in case of flight cancellations, volcanoes stopping air travel, illness prior to or during the trip that would make any cancellation required. Most small and lovely hotels, inns and flats in Paris do not reimburse upon cancellations. That's what the travel insurance is needed for.
We are unable to offer a refund of your workshop fee(s) within eight weeks of the actual dates, as we must book the workshop venues early and have required charges already paid as well. Prior to the eight week date, we are able to offer a refund of your workshop fees only, less 2% for refund charges.
All reservations made prior to the eight week cut off require a 50% deposit to be held, with the confirming balance to be paid in full before the eight week cut-off. We will send to you an initial invoice for the first half of the workshop fee, and an invoice reminder to you again before the 8-week due date. Any reservation made within eight weeks of the workshop must be paid in full at reservation, and no refunds can be made unless we can fill your spot at such late notice. Your insurance would cover the loss for you, or we are happy to offer you attendance at another Explore/Write/Be workshop in another location or at a future date.
If at the eight week deadline, fewer than 3 attendees have reserved or confirmed for any workshop, we assert the right to adjust the workshop content to meet the requirements of those attending. In this case, all workshop fees will be offered to refund if you wish not to attend.
