SUMMARY:14th Annual Lac Cafe Retreat
DESCRIPTION:A women’s writing weekend\, open to experienced writers of fiction\, nonfiction\, poetry and all in-between genres.

Non-binary writers welcome. \nLise Weil has over thirty years’ experience teaching writing in both academic and alternative settings. Her memoir In Search of Pure Lust appeared in 2018 with Inanna Press. She is the founding editor of Dark Matter: Women Witnessing and teaches in the Goddard Graduate Institute in Plainfield\, Vermont. www.liseweil.com
