An intimate, four-day sacred gathering — limited to 15 women.

She's been carrying something she hasn't written yet.

The Anointed Writers Retreat was created for the Christian woman who knows there is a book inside of her — and for the woman who has already written, but desires something deeper. This retreat is for you if:

You're a first-time writer stuck in your head. You know God gave you a story, but you don't know where to start — and the longer you wait, the heavier it feels.

Life keeps getting in the way of your writing. The distractions are real, the responsibilities are real — but so is the calling. You need space to finally give it your full attention.

You've published, but you hid your true story. You wrote what you thought others wanted to read. But God is stirring something deeper, something more honest — and you're ready for it.

You hide behind fiction because the truth feels too vulnerable. The guilt, the shame, the pain of your past — it's all still there, and it's keeping you from writing the book that could set someone else free.

You want to deepen your relationship with God in your writing. You don't just want to write a book. You want to know what He's actually calling you to write, and who He's calling you to write it for.

You know you have a story, but don't know how to begin. You've started and stopped. You've outlined and abandoned. You need more than instruction — you need activation.

"My heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer."

Psalm 45:1

What Women Say About the Anointed Writers Retreat

"What I experienced at the 2019 Anointed Writers Retreat changed my life. The eight-year-old version of me finally got free, and I was able to begin sharing my story from an authentic place."
— Shalon
"I came in expecting one thing, and left with more than I could have imagined from a writing retreat. I let go of the residue of my past."
— Kim C.
"What I love about Stephanie as a literary coach is that she focuses on getting to the root of your story versus just teaching you how to write a book."
— Brenda J.

These women attended the last in-person Anointed Writers Retreat in 2019. Now the doors are opening for 15 more.

The reason you haven't written your story isn't a lack of skill.

It's the residue of your past sitting in your soul.

You're telling your story from the surface. You've been giving people the highlights — the parts that feel safe — while the real story, the one God wants to use, stays buried underneath.

The trauma, the pain, the guilt — it's still there. And until it's addressed at the root, writing will always feel hard, heavy, and incomplete.

You've been writing a good read instead of a healing word. God doesn't just want people to enjoy your story. He wants your story to set someone free.

You need more than a writing workshop. You need a space where Holy Spirit can move, heal the wounds beneath the words, and release what He placed in you to write.

The Anointed Writers Retreat was created for exactly this.
This is where the healing and the writing happen together.

Anointed Writers Retreat worship and writing

There is no other retreat like this one.

This is not a conference. It is not a workshop. It is not a mastermind. The Anointed Writers Retreat is a Holy Spirit-infused, prophetically activated, spiritually transformational experience — where every element has been intentionally designed to help you encounter God in your writing process.

"We call down Heaven and all the heavenly scribes to release the anointing of God over these women in their writing process."
🙏🏽

Prophetic intercession and activations that shift the spiritual atmosphere and break through resistance you've carried for years.

🎶

Worship woven throughout — not as an opening segment, but as a constant posture that keeps the atmosphere open to Holy Spirit.

✍🏽

Root-level story work — not surface-level writing tips, but deep coaching that gets to what God actually placed in you to birth.

🤍

Soul healing — because the story God wants to use is on the other side of the residue that's been holding you captive.

Four Days. Open Heaven. Total Transformation.

Here's what we'll create space for in the room.

Kingdom Sisterhood

Intimate community with other faith-led women who carry the same kind of calling you do.

Eight Years Later. The Vision Is Back.

The last Anointed Writers Retreat gathered nine women and four facilitators in August 2019. What happened in that room was unlike anything a traditional writing conference could produce. Women didn't just learn how to write — they got free.

They discovered that what was keeping them from writing wasn't a lack of skill or time. It was the residue in their souls — unresolved pain, unconfronted trauma, stories told from the surface instead of the root. When that residue was addressed, the writing began to flow.

"The vision didn't disappear. It waited."

After years of caregiving and loss, Stephanie Outten returns with everything she has learned — and a greater anointing to hold this space. This 2027 retreat will not recreate 2019. It will go deeper.

And there will be room for 15 women to walk into that room.

She's Already Talking Herself Out of It.

Let's address that right now.

"I don't have the time."

When God calls you to do something, He graces you with the time to do it. Walking in obedience to what He has assigned doesn't require you to find time — it requires you to trust that He'll make a way for it. Four days set apart for God and your assignment is not a luxury. It is an act of stewardship.

"I can't afford it."

Where God guides, He provides. If this retreat is calling to you, that is not a coincidence — it is God drawing you toward what He has for you in that room. Payment plans are available. Pray before you dismiss it. What you receive from four days in this environment has the potential to produce a lifetime of fruit.

"No one would want to read my story."

Your story was not given to you for you. Whatever God called you to do, you are already qualified to do it. The woman who needs what is inside of you is waiting — and the longer you stay silent, the longer she waits. Your tongue is the pen of the ready writer. It is time to write.

"My heart is overflowing with a good theme… My tongue is the pen of a ready writer."

Psalm 45:1
