The retreat is open to writers of fiction, memoir and general non-fiction, and will include daily workshops on elements of writing as well as a session on the publishing industry, free writing time, readings, and optional trips to the nearby market and a walk in the mountains. Food and accommodation are included in the ticket price. Rooms are available on a shared or single traveller basis, with prices starting at £795 (see a full breakdown of all rooms, with photos, here). Groups are limited to a maximum of 12 to ensure optimum learning time and progression through ongoing writing projects.

TLC Events Feedback
- “The TLC Writers Day was really valuable to me. I met lots of fellow writers in a friendly and conducive atmosphere and each session was highly informative. I learned about a multiplicity of ways to promote myself and my novel, about the author-publisher relationship and what agents and publishers look for in a novel as well as new ways to energise my writing.”
TLC Writers' Day 2018
- “The workshop was thought-provoking and gave me plenty of sources for continuing my learning. It also provided me with ideas and material which I can immediately use to enhance the novel I am writing. Andrew managed to include us all and gave me confidence and enthusiasm to continue.”
Online Writing Workshop ‘Perfect Plotting’ with Andrew Wille
- “An inspirational two hours : a character that prior to the workshop had only been a name became a human with depth and a past I never even knew were there.”
Online Writing Workshop ‘Crafting Characters’ with Kit de Waal
- “TLC’s Edit That Book workshop gave a real insight into the process of getting a book published. The value of having an industry expert sharing their knowledge cannot be underestimated. I went away with a variety of tips that I might not have found elsewhere that will ultimately make my writing better, more engaging, and hopefully more likely to be picked up by an agent or publisher in the future.”
Online Writing Workshop ‘Edit that Book’ with Phoebe Morgan
- “Shelley Weiner is a pro – not only in her knowledge of and ability to share insights into the the writing process, but also of creating inclusive and safe environment. We had a very wide range of participant experience – from beginners to published authors, but the faced-paced workshop was designed in a way that it was useful to everyone. Many thanks to Shelley and to TLC for organising this.”
