Let's Write a Story: A Creative Writing Class for Young Authors (Ongoing)
In this fun creative writing class, we'll work together to come up with a character and a problem and discuss the parts of a story. We'll then spend time writing and illustrating our own individual stories, which we'll share at the end of class! Perfect for reluctant writers as well as experienced storytellers, and a great way to make creative writing part of a learner's weekly routine.

Students are encouraged to attend regularly, but can certainly pop in for a single week to stretch their creative muscles! We'll begin each class (approximately ten minutes) by coming up with a character and a problem-- these are the two absolutely essential ingredients for every story. I'll...
Students will have a better understanding of the parts of a story and the process of writing one, but also more appreciation and respect for their own ideas and creations.
I am the author of sixteen books for tweens and teens, including the 𝘗𝘪𝘱 𝘉𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵'𝘴 𝘎𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘴 series (Scholastic), the 𝘌𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘦, 𝘌𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘳 series (Bloomsbury), and the 𝘋𝘰𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴 series (Bloomsbury). My books are published in twenty-three languages around the world, and have won multiple state and national awards. I have taught creative writing classes across the country at schools, libraries, colleges, and camps, and have taught over 5000 students here on Outschool!
5 files available upon enrollment-Something to write with-- typing or writing by hand are both perfectly fine, but students should have whatever supplies they need ready to go at the beginning of class. -Something to draw/illustrate with if they want to draw illustrations for their story. Students will NOT be able to screen share, so drawings must be done by hand or on a second digital device if they wish to show them to the class!
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
While students will be encouraged to write about whatever excites or inspires them, this is generally a low violence, high charm/delight type of class. Below are my general classroom rules and policies. These will also be explained to students when we begin class! -For everyone's safety, and to ensure an engaging and social experience, students are required to have working microphones and video for the entirety of this class, positioned such that we can both hear and see them. -Students are asked not to use filters or virtual backgrounds-- though if there is an important reason to use a virtual background, please just let me know ahead of time that your student will be using one (no questions asked!). -Students will be asked to introduce themselves by sharing their name, pronoun, and a favorite book. -The Zoom text chat is set to "host only", meaning students can chat with me, but not to one another or the entire classroom.
