Writing Classes for Teens

Saturday Morning Writing Club for Teens:

Calling all middle and high schoolers who love to write! Join us once a month for a fun, supportive writing group! At each meeting, you can try out a new writing activity, continue a work-in-progress, or get feedback on something you’ve written. We’ll try out ghost stories, storyboarding, slam poetry, screenplays, flash fiction, and anything else that strikes our fancy. Meets from 10-11 on the first Saturday of each month, but you do not need to attend every session to join us – come when you can! Free and open to middle and high schoolers, sign up at the library. Fall sessions continue on Dec. 7th. Taught by Ms. Starr Murphy, writer and editor.
