“When I read about the Writing Immersion in Tuscany, my first response was that the program as described appeared to come from my dreams, to turn them into a tangible reality. I would be traveling with one of my favorite people (her daughter was also a participant) and doing almost all of my favorite things: immersing myself in writing and drawing, partaking in fabulous food and wine, hiking and having adventures at my fingertips. To top it off, this would all take place in a sustainable environment in the region I chose to visit for my first trip to Europe five years ago, and to which I had longed to return.
And the tangible reality turned out to be exactly that. I was not disappointed on any counts. My experiences exceeded my hopes.” - Laurie Kigner, Writing Immersion 2010 participant
