Our first-ever fiction writing retreat is here! This November, join fiction teacher Daniel David Wallace in Camden, ME, for Find Your Plot, an intimate long weekend for anyone who’s dreamed of writing a novel but struggled to turn the worlds and characters they love into a story that moves.
Drawing on Daniel’s Character-First approach to storytelling, the retreat will include two in-depth workshops on plot and character, small-group office hours, time to write and connect with other writers, and shared meals in the heart of Midcoast Maine.

Find Your Plot runs November 5–8 in Camden, ME, with both residential and no-stay options available.
