Storyknife Writer’s Retreat
Storyknife is a woman’s writing retreat in Homer, Alaska where they feed you and leave you alone to write. It sounds like The Salty Quill which I thoroughly enjoyed in Maine (I was unbelievably productive at that retreat). Before I’d done too much research, I applied. Only afterwards did I find out how distinguished it is. So, while I’m not holding my breath, there’s always a possibility. Applications for Storyknife are open through August 31, 2025 if you’d also like to apply. Please do! Who knows, maybe we’ll end up there together!
