Amtrak's New 'Writers' Residencies' Promotion Offers Free Rides to Writers

As writers, we’re all too familiar with the common, seemingly hopeless quest to find a place where we can sit and work for hours at a time without household, office, or coffee shop distractions getting in the way. One place we’ve heard many a fellow writer tout as a fantastic, distraction-free workspace is a train — being alone (and somewhat captive) for an extended period of time seems to help inspire the urge to buckle down and be productive.

But what starving writer can afford to ride around on a train every time they need to meet a deadline?

Enter Amtrak.
