I just got back from a week of being spoiled rotten at the Hald Writer’s Retreat in Denmark. Hald is a lovely manor in the Danish countryside, which offers longer residencies throughout the year, but I was invited for a week, along with five Danish writers and four other US writers, as part of a program sponsored by the Danish Arts Council. It was one of those weeks that reminded me how very lucky I’ve been as a writer, and gave me the kick I needed to get back to my novel.
