We Wrote, We Grew, We Had Fun—And We’re Planning the Next Greece Retreat!

Sunset on the island of Amorgos

We hoped our Transformational Women's Writing Retreat in Greece would be transformational--and we weren't disappointed! My co-retreat leader Tanya Shaffer and I partnered with Jonas Saul and Rania Stone of Imagine Greece Retreats to bring 15 talented, beautiful, amazing women with us to Greece--and we had one of the most memorable times of our lives.

We started in Athens, where we...
...toured the Acropolis...
...went on a walking tour...
...and enjoyed a view on a rooftop lounge with a drink and great company.

On our writing retreat on the island of Amorgos, which is in the Cyclades, we stayed at the beautiful family-run Lakki Village Hotel. There, we wrote, learned, did bellydancing, went to town, swam in the ocean and walked along the beach, visited  an 11th c. monastery, ate delicious meals, talked about writing, learned how to cook Greek food, put on a talent show, and ended our stay with a dance party! Phew!



What did I love more? Spending time in Greece, hanging out with an amazing group of women, or reading their writings and helping them grow as writers?
How could I possibly choose?

Maybe you feel like you missed an incredible experience? No fear! We're going back!

Bestselling author Jonas Saul, his delightful wife and fellow thriller writer Rania Stone, and I are leading a novel-writing retreat for ALL WRITERS (not just women this time!) from October 7-13 on the gorgeous island of SANTORINI! 

I'm so excited; I feel like I won't be able to sleep for the next 11 months.

PLEASE JOIN US! 


And, as always, please let me know if you have any questions: KellyDwyer0077@gmail.com

Hope to write with you in Greece in 2026!
