Write, Write, Write!: A Fiction Workshop for Teens with Tina Tocco (via Zoom)


Do you love to write fiction? Would you like to generate new work week after week? Would it be helpful to get feedback from other teens who love and understand writing just as much as you?

In this five-week workshop, you’ll use all sorts of prompts — music, images, wacky situations — to create new stories. There’s no right or wrong here, just the fun of diving into a world of words. You’ll receive positive feedback, so you can take what you produce in class and confidently improve your creative writing outside of class, both for your own projects and in school. We’ll also talk about the writing process, books, and any other word-related things that come into your mind. No judgment. No homework. Just writing.

This class series is also ideal for students who want or need a creative writing boost as they continue to navigate the return to in-person learning.

This workshop will be taught via Zoom. The Zoom link will be emailed at the time of registration. (Please check spam / promotions filters.) Please email admin@writerscenter.org with any questions.
