2023 Summer Writing Retreat (Waitlist)
**The retreat is full at this time. Please register below AND email estagg@missouri.edu to add your name to the waitlist. We'll contact waitlist registrants as we receive cancellations.**

Apply below to participate in the Campus Writing Program's Two-Day Summer Writing Retreat (July 31- Aug 1) at the Historic School House Bed and Breakfast in Rocheport, Missouri. Check out the space: https://www.schoolhousebb.com/ 

As with all of our writing retreats, the Campus Writing Program staff will welcome you to the event, the group will set goals for their day of writing, and then we'll disburse to write around in the beautiful School House Bed and Breakfast. We have access to the School House's indoor and outdoor spaces so you can write where the inspiration strikes. There is no structured program; rather, this retreat is meant to provide the protected time--and peaceful space--for you to accomplish your writing goals.  

As space is limited, we hope to balance disciplines and writing tasks at this event. To that end, we ask that you apply below. The Campus Writing Program staff will follow up via email regarding your acceptance or placement on the waitlist.

Please let Em Stagg (estagg@missouri.edu) know if you have any questions. We look forward to writing with you!
