This
      spring, treat yourself to this relaxing writer's retreat at the
      elegant Chrysalis Inn & Spa! Guided by instructor Susan Colleen
      Browne, you'll explore your life through brainstorming and writing
      sessions, to craft your experiences into story form. With opportunities
      to share your writing, you'll also learn easy ways to enhance
      your storytelling talents and polish your work until it shines.
      You'll leave with drafts of several short pieces, and loads of
      ideas to expand into more stories. Come with pen, paper, or laptop,
      and bring your memories to vivid life!

      exercises to help you begin your manuscript. We'll also explore
      the secrets of productive writing, and how to stay inspired.
