Whidbey Island Lakeside Writers Retreat!
Who
wants to hunker down in a lakeside log house with a big fireplace and write in February?
Feb 26 - Mar 1 - 3 Nights, 4 Days!
I
rented the prettiest house for writers!
For
this retreat, I went with DELUXE and EXCLUSIVE. This place is GORGEOUS and
there'll only be 6-8 writers (depending on if friends want to share a private room)
3 Nights will give us enough time to get some good work done on Whidbey Island while staring at Deer Lake.
For Dinner, let's group up and cook together. I've done this before and it always turns out fun and yummy.
DO YOU WANT
TO: Stare at the lake from the end of the dock, take a kayak out or stay
indoors by the fireplace and write that novel?
Join me at the Log House Retreat after the holidays to relax, unwind, write and hang out with writers!
First
Come, First Served as always, for Bedroom Choice. Let me know if you want more
info or you just plain are ready to commit!

Screenwriting for Authors! Easier Than You Think
Hello Authors and Writers and Storytellers!
Here are the details on the ADAPTATION Workshop I'm offering:
SATURDAY June 28th 2025
10 am Pacific Time
90 minutes of instruction
On Zoom. (you don't need to be on camera if you don't want)
In this workshop/class I teach how to take a novel, extract the story to it's essence, then build it up to a movie using scenes and dialogue from the book.
We go step by step from learning how to write the story's log line, to mapping out the movie's structure to the conclusion of your screenplay's adventure.
I use a Power Point presentation to teach because the first lesson of screenwriting is that people love to be visually entertained! With me talking in the top corner, we go through the slides that teach you the steps to writing a movie from a book. It's easier than you think. You already have the story, you just need to fit it into movie format.
At the end, there'll be time for questions.
The cost is $40 (when I teach this for writing groups it's $150) and I guarantee you'll get $40 worth of information you can use. You can pay me on Paypal using kimhornsby@yahoo.com or Venmo kim6060.
After the class, I refer students to a craft book I wrote on the adaptation.
Note: I will be mentoring writers at a Greek Writing Retreat in September and if you are an author wanting to work with me in Greece to write a screenplay, this class is the first step. Once you take the class, you will be qualified to participate in the Greek retreat and work with me 1:1 on your very own screenplay!
