We’re honored to have Elizabeth as our guest at Women At Woodstock 2026 to lead our first two Writer’s Intensive Workshops on the first day of our retreat, where we will have not only the emotional space and inspiration to generate new writing, but the opportunity for intimate conversations about writing, pitching, and getting published.
