My Story
Ever felt like your own thoughts got lost in all the noise? Us too. That’s why we set up the Himalayan Writing Retreat in Satkhol - not just a place, it’s a vibe. You wake up, see the mountains, and finally hear yourself again. We believe writing’s got magic (from you and the wild), and craft (that’s our job). We show up every day for words, not just waiting for inspiration. You bring your story, we help you get it out.
My Work
What we offer - Residential writing retreats in the Himalayas, online poetry masterclasses, First Draft Club, and healing through writing workshops.
Mountain experience - Come to Satkhol, eat Kumaoni food, trek, write, and hang out with other writers. It’s more than a workshop.
Learn from the best - Our mentors are Sahitya Akademi winners, JCB laureates, and top editors. Real experts. No fluff.
Fast drafting focus - We push you to write quick and messy. Edit later. Because a messy first draft beats no draft.
Community and support - Join our tribe, share ideas, get accountability, and Lit News for calls and jobs. We’ve got your back.
Not just for writers - Some workshops help process emotions and find clarity. Curiosity is all you need, not a writing background.
