Write at the Ranch
Author Hideaway - Watch for 2026 group dates!
Or, pick your own dates and plan a private, one-on-one retreat with Jayme!
Ditch the Busy and Escape to the Ranch!
Jayme H. Mansfield, founder of Cowgirl Publishing and multi-published and award-winning author, invites you to an author’s dream. Come hideaway in a cozy cabin and write! You’ll be filled with writing inspiration and “get ‘er done” encouragement as you breathe a little deeper and smile a lot wider!
Treat yourself to four nights at the Vee Bar Ranch – the historic, top-rated, Wyoming guest ranch in the breathtaking Centennial Valley. The ranch is 20 minutes west of Laramie and only three hours from Denver! Visit www.veebar.com for more info and photos.
Your stay includes a choice of single or double occupancy in a well-appointed and peaceful Riverside Suite or Cabin. You will delight, and certainly not go hungry, with delicious meals served in the historic Lodge: Sunday dinner, M-W breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and Thursday breakfast. Besides a warm welcome from the ranch family and wranglers, other western hospitality includes raising a glass in the John Wayne Saloon, relaxing in the riverside hot-tub, and taking in the spectacular scenery around the ranch.
While at the ranch, Jayme welcomes one-on-one time to saddle up with you to make strides on your writing goals -- manuscript development, marketing, and/or publishing –while cheering you on to write that book!
