Welcome
The Sayulita Writers Workshops offers aspiring and professional writers an opportunity to experience Mexico in a relaxed, welcoming setting: a small, colorful, and lively beachfront town with an eclectic population mix of Mexicans and expat Americans and Europeans. The first year's program features classes ranging from your fundamental, “Method and Madness - A Fiction Workshop,” (taught by Tim Tomlinson) to “The Art and Soul of Food Writing,” (taught by author-chef-blogger Becky Selengut) and everything in between. Both aspiring and already successful writers will find something of interest to study, from techniques of memoir writing to blogging for a book deal. And what a great place to hang out and write between classes! Sayulita is truly one of the great Mexican beach towns. We urge you to spend some time on the town’s excellent and informative website, sayulitalife.com, to get an online feel for life in Sayulita.
