The Homeric Writers' Retreat & Workshop On
The Greek Isle Of Ithaca
August 1 - 7, 2013
Ithaca is a writer’s haven. It remains unspoiled by the modern world. Even in the height
of summer you can find a secluded beach or a rustic corner to contemplate your
thoughts. On Ithaca you'll discover the island’s rich culture and the reason
why it holds such a special place in the hearts of those who have visited its
shores
The new Homeric Writers' Retreat & Workshop invites
participants to their very own private odyssey on the island of Ithaca—a
retreat about riveting one's writing through an intimate Homeric
journey.
