Join Charlotte to learn tricks of the trade, share secrets of the travel writing industry, and discover helpful hacks to craft your individual story. No experience is necessary; just bring an open mind, a laptop or pen or pencil and notebook, and your sense of curiosity. Whether you're brand-new to writing, interested in blogging, or want to pursue publication, you'll leave this workshop one step closer to meeting your goals.
Note: We've hosted Charlotte Austin for five adventure writing workshops since 2017, and the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive — so we're inviting her back for more!
