Salty Quill Writers’ Retreat for Women
The Salty Quill Writers’ Retreat for Women offers one-week residencies four times a year to twelve poets, fiction writers, nonfiction writers, and translators who identify as women at McGee Island, a 110-acre private island located three miles east of Port Clyde, Maine. Residents are provided with lodging at a turn-of-the-century oceanfront summer cottage in single- or shared-occupancy rooms, three chef-prepared meals a day, transportation to and from the island, and the opportunity to participate in after-dinner readings and critiques as well as to kayak, hike, and use the onsite sauna.
