Half‑Day Coaching
4 hours, in person
A focused, restorative half‑day designed to help you gain clarity and make meaningful progress on your project. We’ll begin by identifying your goals, your ideal reader, and the emotional or informational arc of your chapter or scene. Then we’ll map out a structure tailored to your genre — whether that’s a nonfiction chapter framework or a fiction scene/beat outline. You’ll have dedicated writing time supported by real‑time coaching, feedback, and problem‑solving. You’ll leave with a clear plan, renewed confidence, and tangible progress.

Full‑Day Coaching + Writing Immersion
8 hours, in person
A full‑day deep‑dive for writers ready to make significant progress. We’ll work together to refine your book’s purpose, strengthen your structure, and develop your voice — whether you’re crafting a nonfiction chapter, shaping a memoir‑driven narrative, or building a compelling fiction storyline. You’ll receive personalized coaching, and guided writing sessions, and real‑time editorial support throughout the day. This immersive experience is ideal for completing a full chapter, mapping your book, or breaking through creative blocks in a focused, supportive environment.

Three‑Day Hybrid Experience
Virtual + In‑Person + Virtual
A transformative three‑day experience that blends preparation, immersion, and follow‑through.
Day 1 (Virtual): A 60–90 minute session to clarify your goals, identify your chapter or scene’s core purpose, and outline your focus for the in‑person retreat.
Day 2 (In Person): A full day at Forest & Flowers Retreat dedicated to coaching, writing, and shaping your work with hands‑on support.
Day 3 (Virtual): A follow‑up session to refine your draft, strengthen structure, and plan your next steps so your momentum continues long after the retreat ends.
Perfect for writers who want accountability, structure, and a guided path from idea to polished draft — whether nonfiction or fiction. The three days don’t need to be consecutive, but must be close together.
COST: $950
