Stepping stones to publication
Are you ready to take your writing to the next level?
Editing in Paradise is a retreat program for the developing writer—any writer who has started the writing journey, wants to take it further, and (perhaps) isn’t sure how, will find the Editing in Paradise process invaluable.
The Editing in Paradise process
Presented by sought-after editors Shelley Kenigsberg, Selena Hanet-Hutchins and Desney King, Editing in Paradise is a self-editing masterclass retreat program that lays out the stepping stones of editing and rewriting so you can take your writing further along its path to publication.
Held annually in Bali and in 2011 also Mornington Peninsula, Kangaroo Valley and South Africa.
The program is structured over 6 days and offers 4 individual consultations as well as self-editing techniques. Writers on our EIP program will get market awareness tools, designed to help you recognise when you are at pitching point or how to read the feedback in reports and rejections.
Whatever your final destination—publication, finishing the manuscript, or just getting through the next draft—the EIP process can work for you.

I’ve made great strides in the past week…it’s all thanks to your input, your guidance your suggestions and careful understanding, and above all, your positive reinforcement all the time. I noticed! I’m harnessed to the muse, not the other way round…and it’s wonderful!

Why Bali?
Besides cultural beauty and richness, and its proximity to Australia, we have a longstanding connection to the island—Shelley’s been visiting for over twenty years and speaks Bahasa Indonesia—and it’s the perfect mix of inspiration and focussed practice.
Besides Bali
In response to requests, we have extended the reach of the program. The 6-day retreat is also held in Kangaroo Valley most years, and in various other locations around the world, to give those who can’t get into the Bali retreat the opportunity to experience the support and creative focus of the EIP self-editing process.
Why join us at Editing in Paradise?
Inspiration, encouragement, guidance and the expertise to take writing further, with the support of a small writing community.
