Junior Authors Creative Writing Course Level 1

Next online information session and virtual classroom tour is:
Tuesday, March 30 at 10:30 AM PST

Aspiring young writers between the ages of 10 and 17 (grades 4-12) explore and practice the art and craft of creative writing under the mentorship of a professional writer-storyteller. There is a special course for 8-10 year olds starting April 12, scroll down for details.

My daughter loved the course and was writing every moment she was not in class.

Students will practice storytelling, short story writing, writing for the stage, and poetry as well as sharpen their editing skills and learn just what it takes to get published. In each class, students play games that strengthen their core writing skills, do creativity exercises, and write. In the face-to-face course, we wrap up with an opportunity for students to read their work to an appreciative audience of family and friends.

This course is ideal for students who love writing and dream of being published some day, but also for those who are struggling to see the fun side of writing. ESL and special needs students are always welcome.

I liked what Laura covered in the course and that she proof read our work from home and gave us advice on what we good and what was not.
