Writing Retreat in Chamonix, France with David Rocklin
I was thrilled to talk to this week’s guest, award-winning author and writing retreat leader, David Rocklin.
We covered a variety of topics around planning and leading writing retreats, how David helps writers bring out their stories - including ones they didn’t realize were there. I love the way he leads his writing retreats and puts the needs of the writers first.
David also shared where the inspiration for his novels comes from, which I found very interesting, as well as the details for the retreat he’s leading for Foreword Writing Retreats in Chamonix, France in June of 2025.
And, this was another great episode where the guest reminded you that you’re a writer. I feel like that’s definitely been a theme lately and I was very happy to hear David reiterate it.
