Writer Retreats

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Almost every writer I know would like a little more time, a little less chaos and a lot less noise when it comes to writing. They imply that they’d like nothing more than to be stuck in the middle of nowhere to write to their hearts’ content.

But would you? Truly?

If you were offered a week with no internet, questionable phone service, no friends or family, no shops/theatres/etc to distract you, would you take up the offer?

Would it be a dream? Or would it actually be something that made you nervous?

I’m curious to know if writers would truly want what they claim to want, or if it is their current environments that make them the writers they are.
