Imagine sitting outside under a brilliant cerulean Tuscan sky, listening as your instructor gently shapes your journey with writing prompts designed specifically for the spectacular natural setting around you. Envision group sessions held at the piazza, where the hum of life and love provides the vibrant background for your artistic journey. Where your writing is alive with new faces and voices, experiences and vision.

Whether you are a published author working on your next book, or a writer just hoping to give shape and semblance to your thoughts and verse — if you need inspiration to light your way forward in the publishing process — here is the chance to transform dreams into reality, right in the heart of Tuscany.

At Villa Nobile, you will be inspired with daily writing sessions, sessions taught by some of the brightest and most widely known voices in the literary world, and the chance to find your own voice through guided prompts and exercises. The experience will be rich with guest speakers and visits to some of the spots in Tuscany iconic in both literature and film.

In addition, you’ll soak in the true tastes, colors and sounds of Tuscany with tours to some of the areas most well-loved spots, including wine-tasting in Montepulciano, shopping on the winding. cobblestoned streets of Siena, a dip into the area’s storied hot springs at a full-service, luxurious spa, and the opportunity to venture beyond to the artistic wonders of Florence. You’ll be able to engage in cooking classes at the villa itself and enjoy delicious meals prepared with love, as well as at authentic local eateries where you’ll enjoy the finest regional fare — and spirited toasts to nights glittering with magic and memories.

When the session concludes, your group’s short written works and essays will be selected for publication in a small book that will be illustrated with beautiful images of Tuscany — a singular and unique gorgeous memory to be treasured forever.
