We've decided to open up for applications again for the Kenya Literary Retreat as we had a couple of cancellations due to outside circumstances. We actually have room for 2-6 more, so if you were planning to apply but missed the deadline, now's your chance! https://caaln.org/kenya-literary-retreat/

It's a wrap! Our Kenya Literary Retreat applications are closed. Notifications going out by March 15.
