The mini-retreats are especially easy and effective for me.

These are great suggestions. I'm doing a staycation writing retreat in a few weeks and appreciate your suggestions. Ours is an evening and the next day. I think I'm going to plan ahead my meals so it's easy and I might go to a park near by for some of it. I was thinking of various places at my house.

Oh thanks for sharing! I plan on doing one at the end of the month :) I like the idea of picking even where you will be eating because that’s takes me so long every time!

You did a lot this past month! Awesome posts about DIY writing retreats. Would make a great guest blog post some time, if you want to repurpose it down the road :)
