The Left Bank Writers Retreat returns to Paris, August 31-September 6, 2024, celebrating its 10th anniversary of following Ernest Hemingway and fellow Lost Generation authors' footsteps through the Paris streets. Author and Hemingway expert Darla Worden hosts the small-group literary travel-plus-workshop experience for eight writers, with morning writing instruction, lunches in favorite Hemingway cafes from the 1920s, and afternoons exploring significant Paris literary sights.

DENVER, April 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Offering an immersive deep dive into Ernest Hemingway's beloved Paris literary scene of the 1920s, the Left Bank Writers Retreat returns to Paris, France, this fall for a 10th anniversary session, August 31 – September 6, 2024. Paris writing workshop host and Hemingway expert Darla Worden combines a literary travel experience visiting the many cafes, parks and museums that Ernest Hemingway and his expatriate friends frequented in the City of Light a century ago with the special inspiration of daily writing workshops in lush Parisian gardens and creative spaces. Limited to eight writers, the retreat – offering the opportunity for writers in poetry, nonfiction and fiction to improve writing skills while enjoying a culture-filled, week-long Parisian adventure with like-minded enthusiasts – is accepting reservations now.

The Left Bank Writers Retreat's proven itinerary includes morning plein-air writing with one-on-one instruction, trips to world-famous museums including Musée d'Orsay and Musée de l'Orangerie, sipping wine and tasting from French bistro menus in Paris cafes once frequented by 20th-century literary legends Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gertrude Stein, a boat cruise to the Eiffel Tower, and more. Writers at all levels find inspiration and motivation in the salon-style experience, creating work that for some former attendees has led to published books and award-winning poems – including for this year's writer-in-residence, author and poet Tyler Truman Julian, a former retreat attendee. And this year's fall schedule takes place after the Olympics during Paris' golden fall, where cooler temps and less crowded streets make for fabulous days of exploration.

"I'm thrilled to travel again to Paris and host Left Bank Writers Retreat in the city I love and have greatly missed over the past couple years" says retreat host Worden. "Finding inspiration in the magic of the city and learning from history and each other – it's a creative and meaningful experience that I look forward to sharing."

Writers of all levels – and from all genres – are welcome to attend. Registration is limited to eight people. Tuition for the September Left Bank Writers Retreat is $2,199 and includes morning workshops, breakfast, lunch each day at a specially selected restaurant, snacks, museum passes, literary tours, Seine boat ride, Metro tickets and a farewell dinner celebration. A sample itinerary of the daily activities can be seen here. Writers arrange their own lodging and transportation to Paris and can reserve a spot in the retreat on the website registration page with a $500 deposit, which is fully refundable through July 1, 2024.
