ANNOUNCING A COMPETITION FOR WRITERS 35 AND UNDER! win a chance to participate in

‘Write in the Vines’ A Retreat for Non Fiction Writers

with Barbara Nussbaum in Franschhoek May 2011 An invitation to all young writers to enter a competition to win four inspiring days in Franschhoek – combining the quiet focus of a 2-day writers’ retreat with the exciting stimulation of the Franschhoek Literary Festival. A CHANCE IN A LIFETIME TO FOCUS ON A WRITING PROJECT IN THE BEAUTY OF FRANSCHHOEK’S WINELANDS IN THE WESTERN CAPE. Each morning writers will meet for an hour’s inspirational input from author, mentor and coach, Barbara Nussbaum and again towards the close of day. In between, there will be ample time to think, to walk, to write, to let your imagination soar and creativity expand amidst breathtaking scenery. As writers vary in their desire for solitude and community so this retreat is designed to accommodate various tastes and preferences. Gather with fellow writers for lunch together every day – dinner together is optional! On the final day, meet with Louise Grantham, CEO of Bookstorm (a non-fiction publishing company), who will offer practical insights and tips on how to get published.

THE PRIZES FOR THE TWO TALENTED WINNERS INCLUDE: 4 NIGHTS ACCOMMODATION COURTESY PORCUPINE RIDGE WINES at Boekenhoutskloof Winery Manor House, a 17th century farm house overlooking vineyards FULL PARTICIPATION IN BARBARA NUSSBAUM’S ‘WRITE IN THE VINES’ RETREAT at Auberge Chanteclair 11 -13 May including 2 one-on-one mentoring sessions COMPLIMENTARY TICKETS TO THE FRANSCHHOEK LITERARY FESTIVAL 13-15 MAY COMPLIMENTARY LUNCH AND DINNER VOUCHERS for Allora, Elephant & Barrel Pub, Reuben’s to Go, SalmonBar CNA WILL SPONSOR ONE WINNER TO A ROUND TRIP AIR TICKET TO CAPE TOWN!
