"Where the Wildness is: Dancing with Form and Freedom" is a Wolf at the Door Buddhist writing retreat, exploring the imagination through pen, paper - and the spaces in between. Can we find the wildness of imagination through letting ourselves go with no limits, or do we find it using particular forms or parameters? What have other writers and artists done? Is it possible to dance between the two?

Wolf at the Door offers you a wild space for a week, to explore and unearth unsuspected marvels through the practice of writing, ritual, group meditation and discussion. Instead of a spade, we’ll use pens and keyboards; and instead of fertilizer we’ll use our deep imagination.

No prior writing experience needed, but you will need to know the basic Triratna meditation practices.
