Alison Knight and I are proud to present our very first “Imagine” writing retreat…
10 reasons to go on an Imagine Writing Retreat…
1 Writers need writers! No one understands writing and a writer’s life like another writer. Mutual support is the name of the game!
2 Located in the stunning Victorian manor, Northmoor House, Imagine’s retreat gives you the chance to stay in a home untouched by time (But don’t panic, there is Wi-Fi). You can even indulge in the waters of an original Victorian bathtub…don’t forget your bubble bath!
3 With so many of the manor’s period features still in place, Northmoor is the ideal location for sparking inspiration and dreaming up new plotlines.
4 On the edge of Exmoor, near the popular village of Dulverton, there are plenty of beautiful places to explore should you, or any non-writing friends or partners, wish to. There are miles of good walking land on hand. The pre-historic Tarr Steps are but minutes away, and the cafes in Dulverton are excellent. I can personally recommend the poached eggs on crumpets in The Copper Kettle.
Tarr Steps
5 However, you might not want to stray into the village for food because we have employed an excellent local caterer, who is providing a delicious menu that will cater for all dietary requirements. All food is locally sourced.
6 Come along for a confidence boost! At Imagine we pride ourselves on helping everyone to get their words onto the page. We are here for beginners and experts alike.
Kate Griffin
7 Meet Kate Griffin! One of Faber and Faber’s most successful crime writers. Kate Griffin is the author of the brilliant Kitty Peck Mysteries. An expert on Victorian London, Kate will be our guest speaker on the Wednesday evening.
8 Find your inner writer’s peace of mind. We all know that authors suffer from imposter syndrome: “Why am I writing? I’m not good enough!” We all say it! Local happiness mentor and fellow writer, Trina Stacey, will be available for optional one-to-one conversations about how to believe in your abilities, and convince you that you are allowed to do what makes you happy.
9 Let’s face it – Monday to Friday in a beautiful Victorian Manor, with time to write, all food provided, plus three optional workshops, a chance to meet Kate Griffin, and the opportunity to share writing ideas over a glass of wine (or two) – for only £450 (10% less if you book before 31st October) is a BARGAIN.
10 IT WILL BE A LOT OF FUN!

How early can I book without paying the full price? Is with a deposit?
Jenny Kane
Hello John,
The discount comes with the bulk payment after the deposit. So any booking is reserved with a standard £100 deposit. Then- if you have paid that deposit before 31st October the balance you will owe later is a further £305. If you don’t pay your deposit until after 31st October then you will need to pay a further £355 later. I hope that helps. You can find all the booking information at http://www.imaginecreativewriting.co.uk Thank you, Jenny

Could be a late decision as not back at work until 23rd October.
Jenny Kane
Not a problem
