TESTIMONIALS

"No matter how hustle-bustle your life is before you depart, by day two...distractions fade far, far away. Your inspiration returns, self-doubt dissipates and you get lost in the rhythm of writing, eating, conversing and walking through the hillsides.... And if ever you falter in your creative vision, your fellow writers and Professor Paul Chitlik will take the time to sit you down, dust you off, and help get you back on track. By the end, you'll realize that this investment in "you" was well worth it."

"...incredibly rigorous and creative. The professional level of peer review and the private office hours available with Paul put the focus on wrangling a first draft into a saleable second. I attended in 2008 and 2009, and applying Paul's techniques to my first drafts has produced two second drafts in entirely different genres, both of which got intensive story notes, scenework inspiration and simplification that turned two first draft haystacks into fully realized scripts. It is an unbelievably worthwhile experience to go on retreat with talented writers and a teacher of Paul's caliber."

TESTIMONIALS

"A magical experience for any screenwriter. Feedback and guidance, incredible meals, country hikes—all contribute to keep you writing, writing, writing."

"I got more out of this than any writing course—ever. Mainly, a solid story outline and seventy pages of screenplay!"

"Easily the most fantastic writing experience of my life."

"Rewriting is the real writing. To do so in this majestic, inspiring Tuscan villa was absolutely magical. The landscapes, the hiking, the authentic homemade Italian meals, topped off with Paul's expert, passionate instruction and the camaraderie shared with fellow talented writers, exceeded my every expectation. Paul leads this rewriting and story development workshop with skilled mastery, wit and warmth. I adored this workshop and highly recommend it to any serious writer."
