What workshop participants say about Rosemary and her work:

"Rosemary doesn't waste a minute and she gives her all.  When we were sharing, she was really listening to every word.  I go to workshops often and I found this one (to be) the best one I've ever been to." - Franci Weston, San Antonio

"I have been to many writing workshops, but yours was the most beneficial – it allowed me to explore what is inside me, and has enabled me to grow – as a writer, woman, mother, sister.  I continue to grow each day, beginning with your ‘exorcises’...” Kathy Kubik, Chicago 

"Rosemary Daniell's SECRETS OF THE ZONA ROSA ranks alongside "Bird by Bird" by Anne Lamott and "If you Want to Write" by Brenda Ueland. . . I've reread this book many times and have underlined many passages.  It is a book I keep close by for inspiration." 
- Gayla Crosby, Savannah


ZONA ROSA WRITERS’ RETREAT

SOUTHWESTERN FRANCE

September 19-26, 2008

Rosemary Daniell, award-winning author, founder of Zona Rosa writing-and-living workshops, and known as one of the best writing coaches in the country, will lead a second 2008 European workshop: a retreat in Southwestern France. Our location is near the town of Millau in the Aveyron region of Languedoc-Roussillon, east of Toulouse. Our residence is the Domaine de la Cadenède, a fortified farmhouse built during the 13th century at the time of the Knights Templar, with Renaissance additions that include an interior courtyard built in 1660. A swimming pool, outdoor kitchen and dining area are within view of the spectacular Viaduct of Millau, the world's tallest bridge and an engineering marvel that opened in December 2004. Bicycles are available for rent, and there is a fitness room with exercise equipment. Wireless internet access is available throughout the house. More information about the house can be found at www.cadenede.com.
 
The cost of $2845 includes the one-week rental in shared twin-bedded rooms (several rooms have double plus single), group airport transfers, a full-day excursion into the countryside, meals (prepared by our extraordinary chefs, Pam and Judith), manuscript critique and private and group sessions with Rosemary, and miscellaneous expenses (cleaning fees, auto rental for the chefs, gas, parking and tolls, etc.). Not included: lunch and any entrance fees on the excursion, gratuities to the drivers, and items of a personal nature. Single supplement (limited availability): $300. In addition to the retreat cost, a refundable security deposit of $200 per person is required by the owners.
 
Our schedule will consist of afternoon group sessions, with subjects tailored to participants’ needs. In addition, each person will meet privately with Rosemary to discuss her/his work, and there will be free time for writing and to explore the countryside on foot. We are only 4 kilometers from the town of Millau.
 
You will fly into and out of Toulouse, arriving on Friday, Sept. 19, and departing on Friday, Sept. 26. A group transfer will take you from the Toulouse airport and back.
