April 3: Lit Circus! A new event from the makers of the Fbomb Reading Series!

From the minds behind the Fbomb Reading Series comes an experimental new event in West Denver:


What is Lit Circus, you ask? Lit Circus is a throwback variety-style show featuring a changing line-up of Denver’s best and weirdest talents: writers, yes, of course writers—but also musicians, actors, dancers, filmmakers, contortionists, crazy cat tricks: who knows??
(IMPORTANT: this is an 18+ event that may have adult themes).


Partnering with the new Night Owls Bar, a speakeasy-style cocktail lounge and event space hidden in plain sight inside the Denver Mills Mall (can you get more subversive than right in the middle of a mall?) we will once again let our brilliance rise on a new stage, with a new aim: to showcase and cross-pollinate local artists of all genres and remind us that we always need more art. Especially now.


This debut event is FREE–but you must claim your free ticket here: https://www.multipass.com/litcircus
Come be part of the experiment.
In weird and strange times, we need our creative community more than ever.

The Best Valentine’s Day Gift Ever???

Going on a retreat TOGETHER!

Why not take your sweetheart WITH you?

Over the last 8 years, we’ve had lots of people retreat together: couples, writing partners, sisters, besties, writing groups, long-lost brothers (wink)…even writing partners who were meeting in person for the first time!

(Not to mention we’ve celebrated many birthdays, too.)

with Nancy Stohlman and Robert Vaughan in the sunflower fields!

“The French Retreat was definitely worth travelling from the other side of the world for! Brilliant, accomplished teachers – incredibly warm, encouraging group of writers – how marvellous to have time together talking about books and sharing our work. The setting was magical – sunflowers opened up as did our writing. Gorgeous retreat facility – still missing being in that amazing space and those sumptuous meals. Very highly recommended. Thank you so much for a rich, memorable time. I’ll be signing up again!”

GRAND LAKE

August 19-24, 2025

with Nancy Stohlman and Kathy Fish, welcoming you back to our always beautiful home state of Colorado!

 “Kathy and Nancy have truly curated something special in these retreats, whether it’s the setting of the chosen space or the workshops themselves. I’ve never been in a group so talented and caring, and I grew so much from our time together. I’ve been academia too long, and it has often desensitized me to my own writing process, but this retreat forced me to be still and love both myself and my work again.”

ICELAND

October 14-19, 2025

with Nancy Stohlman and Selah Saterstrom in the magical darkness (and the hot spring!)

Retreats allow for total immersion in the creative process, and it was a tremendous gift to my writing life. It was my first destination retreat experience and it has changed my writing life forever. I was open to the experience, and everything exceeded my expectations from the scenery, the writing conversations, the people, the depth, and the instruction. This group has become my forever writing people.

A writing retreat is the Valentine’s Day gift you give yourself.

I can’t wait to retreat with you!
