Beloved, wild-hearted mermaid. This is your invitation home. Join us in the swirling storms, the emerald coves, and the gentle eddies of our fluid creativity.

Writing With Mermaids is not your typical writing community. It's where we breathe and write in spaces that hold the full spectrum of our identities. It's a place for us to be messy, magical, and uncensored.

♨️ Fall Retreat: Harbin Hot Springs, October 10–12

Accommodation has sold out for this retreat, but camping options are still available. Nestled in the healing waters of Harbin, this weekend-long retreat is for those ready to submerge even deeper. This magical hot spring is the place where I discovered my method of soaking and writing (and soaking and writing.) Please join me as we immerse ourselves in writing at my favorite hot spring.

Sliding Scale: $325–$425 Scholarships available. Vegetarian meals included.
