Book excerpt: The Writer's Retreat Kit is a portable book-and-card package with practical prompts for writers. Artfully designed, the kit offers 20 "retreats," each with a theme and suggested activities aimed at maximizing creativity. Based on the author's experiences as a writing teacher and workshop leader, The Writer's Retreat Kit encourages creativity in a wide range of environments - from writing during business travel to sojourns in Walden Pond-like wilderness to adventures in the backyard, and from observation at international airports to international coffee at the local café . Each retreat contains exercises and tips to get writers and artists started and keep them going. And since writing isn't the only activity that occurs during a retreat, each theme offers other "Provisions, Practices, and Creative Nourishment" ideas that stimulate both the writer and the writing: books that echo the theme, art projects to fulfill other creative urges, music suggestions, and even recipes. With inspiring artwork and quotes, this kit is a veritable muse for individuals as well as writing groups.
