HDC Writing Retreat 2022

I came to the High Desert Center (HDC) for the 2022 Writing Retreat for a month-long get-away and a writing challenge as a part of my gap-summer before starting my graduate program in the fall for an MA in Creative Writing. Working alongside other writers around my age was an absolute blast, compared to other writing retreats that only cater to older adults, and I would highly recommend this retreat to any writer between the ages of 18 and 24 who wants to challenge themselves not only to write a 50k word book by the end of the month but those who also want to experience what it would be like to live a sustainable lifestyle, composting toilets and solar shower included.
