Is this Retreat for You?
Our retreat is tailored for leaders, content creators, writers, bloggers, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want to create compelling content but are not sure how to, when to, or where on earth to find space in their busy schedules. I’ve got you! I was exactly like that, running around and squeezing in time for myself – heading to burn out! Hustling harder, and filling your days with more activities does not help. You need space to breathe!
Over the course of four days, immerse yourself in a tranquil and inspiring environment that offers both the literal and metaphorical space needed to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and focus on your writing. And there will be lots of motivation from the experts who are there to inspire and guide you.
We’ve had writers, content creators, coaches, start up founders, business gurus and professionals grow their content skills in their area of expertise, whether it be,
Blank Page to Books, Blogs, Bestsellers and more..
This is for you if you are an aspiring writer or content creator with that feeling that your writing needs some TLC. It’s also for you if you are in business or corporate and need scintillating content to match your amazing ideas or products. It’s for you if you’re a successful writer but are feeling a bit jaded and tired after all the chatgpt and AI hysteria.
That was me until I found a way to escape the madness and merge my love of travel, history and writing – into an exclusive writing retreat with like-minded individuals. I usually do these on my own to start or recharge my writing engines! But this time, you can join in, as the synergies of a group make the magic happen.
The secret is time and space – and you can get it all in the Xclusive Xpresswords Writing Retreat. When I did my Himalayan treks in 2013, 2017 and 2022, I came to Landour to write up the first drafts of my Himalayan books, and edit my Camino books.
Luxury is one thing, but when you add history and a living heritage, it becomes a potent and heady mix for ideas, stories and content of all kinds. Landour has a disproportionate quota of writers and artists – including Poet Laureate Ruskin Bond, perhaps the most prolific and famous of Anglo-Indian writers. It is also the last resting place of the first Australian born novelist, John Lang.
Letting go is the best thing you can do for your creativity – the more wound up you are, the less you do, or the worse your work. So, take a holiday! A unique holiday with space for writing, where everything else is looked after.

Testimonials
Here’s what real people say about working with Susan
Release your Muse in the Himalayan Eyrie!
Who Am I ?
and why you should write with me
Hey, I’m Susan, multiple Amazon bestselling author, book coach and adventurer.
With this retreat I have found a way to merge my love of adventure, history and writing – and I’d love to share it with you. I’ve helped many people who thought that writing a book, a blog, or content was impossible after they have spent countless hours, days, weeks, months and even years struggling with their message, that sometimes they ask me if I’m a life coach rather than a book coach. Is there a difference, I wonder?
But this wasn’t always me.
Before I threw myself into the world of writing and coaching I was just another cog in the wheel in the content factories of the IT world, namelessly churning out complicated technical documents that engineers and NASA scientists may or may not have read, and then coming home to be supermom to my four kids and two grandkids. Shhh – my supermom trick? Read stories to them! It’s the least tiring and most amazing thing to do with kids. But I digress.
Reading a lot and telling stories means that the personalized strategies you get here are based on my own real-time-relevant-right-now experience and are what all writers need to get their message across to and serve their readers in today’s world.
