Beginner - Advanced 等級
A writing workshop is an invaluable resource for both budding and seasoned writers seeking to hone their craft. These collaborative sessions provide a supportive environment where participants can share their work and receive constructive feedback from peers and instructors. The workshops often focus on various aspects of writing, such as character development, narrative structure, and language use, allowing writers to explore different techniques and styles. By engaging with diverse perspectives, writers can gain insights into their own work and be inspired by the creativity of others. Ultimately, these workshops foster a sense of community among writers, offering a space for growth and inspiration.

This is a great class for students who enjoy telling spooky stories and exploring new weekly horror topics. Each meeting's theme, along with writing tips, is based on student and parent requests. My message box is open 24/7 for requests related to lessons, genres, writing prompts, and one-on-one feedback or assistance with writing challenges. 
(Artists and Musicians Welcome)

Structure for each meeting:

Flex Time: Students can discuss their weekly writing and ask any questions they have.

Lesson Time: We will dive into our genre/topic of the week and share helpful writing tips for everyone.

Writing Time: This is the students’ free time to engage in various types of writing, whether it's short stories, fan fiction, flash fiction, micro fiction, novellas, poems, songs, scripts, artwork for stories, storyboarding, or character building.

Share Time: Sharing work in class is optional, so students can choose to showcase their creations if they feel comfortable.
