The Indie Love writing weekends began in September 2018, initially as part of the Page One Books blog. However, Indie Love quickly grew into its own independent venture.
We host our retreats in a lovely house on a farm in Llandysul, surrounded by beautiful countryside, narrow lanes and the occasional braying donkey.
Prioritising a ‘go with the flow’ flexible approach, we encourage our authors to decide on the weekend’s activities with zero expectations from us. It’s your time to relax, write and focus on being an author without the distractions that you’re usually faced with. There’s no cooking, no cleaning and you don’t even have to get dressed if you don’t want to. For the time you’re with us, you’re not a parent or an employee or a friend—you’re an incredibly creative author just working on their craft.
This might include writing sprints, informal discussions on specific topics, or practical peer-led workshops like setting up newsletter automations.
Spaces on each retreat are limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Food and accommodation are included, but please note most of the bedrooms rooms are shared and are also on a first-come, first-served basis.
