Ireland Writing Retreat - Forgotten Land, Remembered Words is a week-long, creative writing holiday with a difference – scenic walks, fascinating talks and daily practical writing and editing workshops – all in a land that time forgot in the most mythical part of Ireland, along the Wild Atlantic Way. Participants will also enjoy lively, traditional Irish music concerts; archaeological and environmental tours of an awe-inspiring landscape soaked in Celtic legend; tuition in the Gaelic language, as well as Irish ceildhe dancing. This promises to be a wonderful, week-long visit to Ireland that will leave you with the fondest of memories, combining the best of scenery the entire island has to offer plus practical training that will help you become a better writer.
