The Heritage listed Katharine Susannah Prichard Writers Centre offers daily, weekly and monthly accommodation for writers wishing to find a space in which to progress a major piece of writing.
Opportunities also exist to participate in, and contribute to, the literary activities in Western Australia by way of workshops and readings.
The Centre is located in the hills east of Perth in Western Australia.
The ambience of the centre is excellent for creativity and inspiration. 20-60,000 words are frequently achieved by our Writers in Residence in a four week stay, in between enjoying the interaction with local writers.
The Centre is partially air-conditionned, is wired in every room with Internet Broadband, and has a range of PCs with writing, publishing and scanning software.
The furnished accommodation at the centre consists of one single bedroom and one double bedroom, shower, toilet, laundry, kitchen, sitting room and meeting room. All rooms except the bedrooms and shower are shared with writing groups who use the meeting room for approximately seven 2-hour sessions a week.
A separate writer's retreat in the garden, where Katharine Susannah Prichard did most of her writing, is available to writers at all times.
Accommodation must be paid for at the time of booking.
Bookings may be made by phone or fax on +61 8 9294 1872 or by email at kspf@iinet.net.au
