John C. Campbell Folk School… It’s like summer camp for adults.

Come write in the peace and beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Give yourself the gift of time to write in a place conducive to creativity. Whether you already write or need a nudge to begin, the instructor will provide inspiration, encouragement, writing prompts, editing tips, and one-on-one coaching. Magic always happens in Folk School writing classes. Start here, then go home motivated to write more! All with an interest in poetry or prose (fiction, nonfiction, memoir, blogging...) are welcome.
