Come surround yourself with beauty and peace while talking about writing! Pick each other's brains for advice, let ideas flow, share publishing hints and networking tips in a relaxed setting. 

The Shiraishi International Villa provides a relaxed atmosphere for small groups to spend time together, cook meals together and network. Our networking weekend also includes hiking, pilgrimaging, kayaking, a BBQ on the beach, and just sitting on the deck of the villa taking in the beautiful views of the Seto Inland Sea.

 

A weekend sure to inspire the muse within you!
