The Writers' Colony

Our 2010 opening is less than two weeks away and the pace is picking up. We've got a great bunch of writers coming in this year, so if you're considering joining us let Vicki know at 479-253-7444. Some folks schedule well in advance, others at the last minute. Somehow, Vicki sorts it all out!

Once again, we're being super flexible with lengths of stays this year. We learned last year that our flexibility made it possible for many old and new friends to come and get that protected work time they need. Realistically, the economy means changes for all of us, and if a shorter than usual stay is what's best for you, let us know.

When you come, you'll see familiar faces: Vicki Kell-Schneider at the front desk, Cindy Duncan in the kitchen, Jana Jones in the garden and sprucing up the suites, and me behind the scenes. All of us are looking forward to supporting you however we can - for lots and lots and lots of writing time, thinking space, gathering for yummy dinners, quiet work in the writing suites, and fun breaks in town.

Spring is hinting that it's here, we hope you'll be here soon, too!
