Calling all teen writers! Join our friendly, supportive creative writing group to hone your skills and get helpful feedback from other writers! Led by author and professor Mira Johnson, this weekly program will help you find your voice, explore and dissect mentor texts, identify and borrow craft elements, and learn best strategies of giving critique as well as ways of following
through with feedback. At the end of this series, we will celebrate with a reading event. Bring your curiosity and passion! All levels welcome. Attendance at all sessions is recommended.
