It’s not easy to sneak away from daily life to attend a weeklong writers retreat.  But might you sneak away for a day?  Welcome to the 12-Hour Writers Retreat—a morning-to-night writing experience committed to supporting your work from idea to live reading!  On Saturday, May 18, join fellow writers for a fun (and food!) filled day at Forage.  Enjoy guided writing exercises, unencumbered freewriting time, a supportive workshop, and a final show featuring you!   

This retreat will be hosted by writer-in-residence Lindsay Starck! Lindsay was born in Wisconsin and raised in the Milwaukee Public Library. She is the author of the novels Noah's Wife (2016) and Monsters We Have Made (2023). Her short prose has appeared in Ploughshares, the New England Review, AGNI, and the Southern Review, among other places. She currently writes and teaches in Minneapolis, where she lives with her husband and her cattle dog.

Writers 21+ are encouraged to register.

Sign-ups begin April 1! Space is limited!
