Our 2021 curriculum is focused on four primary dates (4 days each) on site at Tranquility Base in Mountain View, AR. Call us for specific information on a customized 2-day retreat at another location in the US.
Our retreats are private, intimate, and designed to focus on individuals. That’s why we limit each retreat to eight participants. This experience is designed for:
Learning – Relaxing – Cultural Experiences – and Hospitality (we are at your service).
Each four-day retreat focuses on four areas including: Faith & Craft, Content Marketing & Authentic Brand, The Art & Science of Writing & Publishing, and The Deeper You.
Some of the topics covered in these four sessions include: Finding Your Voice, Don’t Waste Your Wilderness, Habits & Systems, The Valley of the Dry Bones, How to Sell Without Selling, Creating Stakeholders, Embracing Fear, Your Creative Rhythm, Traditional & Indie Author Strategies, and many more.
These are the 2021 learning dates and the cultural opportunities extended with them:
•March 11-14 (highlighting the bi-annual Mountain View Bluegrass Festival)
•April 15-18 (highlighting Mountain View’s famous Arkansas Folk Festival)
•October 21-24 (highlighting Stone County’s Beanfest & Outhouse Races)
•November 11-14 (highlighting Mountain View’s bi-annual Bluegrass Festival)
While we’re focused on learning in a rustic lodge setting in the amazing White River Valley, we’ll also work in opportunities for experiences such as:
A tour of the Hemingway-Pfieffer Center and the barn studio where Hemingway wrote A Farewell to Arms; Blanchard Springs Caverns Tours; Shopping in the Town Square; World-Class Trout Fishing; Zip Line Course; Golf; and more.
COST: Each four-day seminar is $500, plus a $100 room and board fee for those who stay on the property. Our accommodations are albergue-style in our loft, a rustic, hostel-like, but cozy setting. Private accommodations are easily arranged. All meals (with the exception of one night out) are covered. We will work with each participant on transportation to our lodge, and to your return destination. Again, we are here to serve you.
This is not one of those experiences where you’ll leave disappointed. You’ll learn. You’ll have fun. Make new friends. See another part of the world. And you will be served. We are laser-focused on hospitality because we love serving people. Tell us you weren’t happy when it comes time to go home, and I’ll refund your money (if you even want to go home).
Spots may be reserved with a $100 non-refundable deposit, balance due sixty days prior to the event. For more information, call 870.926.4055, or write steve@stevewatkins.org
