Let It Rip! Sonoma County Writers Camp

Re-Vision: Sonoma County Writers Camp

Also With Ellen Sussman

September 23 - 27, 2026

This camp will show you how to let the story teach you its secrets. We will begin by assessing what you’ve got–what’s evolved on the page. By discerning what your story wants to be, you will be able to build on what you’ve achieved.
