Writing the Tough Stuff for Teens

During this free, eight-week workshop at Creative Nonfiction, participants will become part of a special cohort of young adults working together. They’ll have the opportunity to share and reflect on the writing process, and specifically on how writing about difficult topics gives the writer the opportunity to investigate their life and take ownership of their experiences. In addition to learning the basics of creative nonfiction, such as crafting scenes and characters, finding your audience, and revising your work, students will also receive training on how to prepare a portion of your work to be performed aloud at a final (online)“graduation” event.

Meetings are scheduled to run from 6 PM until 8 PM on eight Thursdays: Feb 4, 11, 18, 25, Mar 4, 11, 18, and 25.
