Overview

InkWell Academic Writing Retreats is a writing coaching company for scholars who want to free themselves from fear and make joyful writing the center of their scholarly life. The Composed Writing Retreat is our signature service--a week-long experiential learning program that provides the training, support, and guided practice scholars need to truly hone the skills they need to be resilient, productive writers. This evidence-based writing retreat boosts writing productivity by teaching scholars to reconnect with the pleasures and satisfactions of writing. All InkWell retreats are facilitated by founder Michelle Boyd, PhD. An award-winning writer and former tenured faculty member, Michelle knows what it's like to have no time to write, to procrastinate when there is time, and to struggle when the writing is going nowhere. Better yet, she knows--from experience and research--that successful scholars write from the inside out: they turn inward to discover their own writing process and trust it to move them past writing challenges. InkWell Retreats has helped hundreds of scholars--from all ranks and a wide range of institutions and inter/disciplines--move past their anxieties, reconnect with their writing, and develop a calmer, more confident, more productive writing practice.
