About your host: Gabriela Vannier is a Sonoma County writer whose understated voice brings both grace and grit to the subjects of loss, grief, and the long arc of healing. Her work often explores how revisiting the past can offer catharsis, reveal new meaning, and gently reshape the narrative of both who we have been and who we are becoming.
Her poetry, essays, and short stories have appeared in The Sonoma County Gazette, the online magazine We Need Not Walk Alone, and several poetry anthologies. Through these forms, Gabriela examines the fractures and turning points that define us, illuminating resilience through attentive, unflinching storytelling. Gabriela is currently at work on her memoir, apricot.

One of the true pleasures of the retreat: gathering around the table.

Chef Carlee will be preparing two family-style dinners, made to be passed, shared, and savored-food that grounds us after a day of writing and reflection.

This is where stories deepen, laughter softens the room, and strangers begin to feel like friends.
