Saturday Writing Sampler
This one day workshop is an introduction to various creative writing forms. Exercises are engaging and the environment is supportive and constructive. The intent is for participants to leave the workshop feeling that the experience of writing can be an illuminating and enjoyable adventure- not just a mandatory, dry classroom exercise. Workshop enrollment is limited to ensure maximum individual attention. This workshop will be from 10 AM- 2PM, Saturday, March 11th. Registration fee is $80.
Getting Published for Teens
This one day workshop focuses on what it takes to become a published writer. Teens will be walked through the process of publication.

This workshop is appropriate for young adults aged 12+. Workshop will be held 10 AM-2 PM, Saturday March 25th. Workshop fee is $80.
*Registration fee if both workshops attended is discounted to $140.
