Creative Writing Workshops

Our writing workshops are perfect for aspiring
writers of all ages and skill levels. Students work
in small, intensive classes. Ideas exchange;
discussions abound. There are no
pre-requisites – just a love of writing and the
desire to participate and grow in the workshop
setting..

Week 1
Week 1: Mechanics of Writing
Master grammatical conventions: verb forms,
tense, pronoun agreement, punctuation, and
other aspects of quality writing. We focus on the skills students need now and in their future
to communicate effectively and confidently as they advance through high school and into college.

Week 2
Week 2: Writing for the Internet
Learn the styles and techniques of writing for a networked, world-wide audience. We work
on Internet journalism, professional blogging, and other areas of social computing. We examine
the responsibilities and protocols for Internet writing, as well as the tools and techniques to do so.

Week 3
Week 3: Fiction I: Style and Form
Learn how to turn an original idea into a piece of writing and how to bring imagination and
structure to a story. Work on outline, plot, setting, character development, word choice, revision,
and editing. This is designed for writers who want to improve their written voice, and polish
their storytelling skills.

Week 4
Week 4: Fiction II: “Tell Me a Story”
Delve into your imagination in one of our most creative writing classes. Learn not only how to
write a great story, but how to tell a great story. Through the study of masterworks and creation of
your own stories, our class delves more deeply into the rich world of storytelling –
imagination, writing and speaking.
