Young Writers' Studio

Get ready for Summer 2013!

Young Writers’ Studio offers 9th-12th graders a chance to work with professional writers to learn new techniques, explore different genres, receive feedback on their work and have fun in a supportive environment.  YWS is all about encouraging young people to tap into their creativity and take their writing to the next level.

You’ll never reach your dream of being a writer if you don’t write. Once you get it down on paper, bring it to YWS and listen to friendly feedback from folks who want you to improve your story or poem. Sharing what you’ve written can be frightening but you can overcome that fear by writing often and listening to constructive criticism and praise. "Don’t get it right, just get it written." -James Thurber

Summer sessions are held on Tuesdays from 6–8 p.m. at Thurber Center, 91 Jefferson Avenue. Each session is $15 and can be paid at the door, or register online. For more information contact Meg Brown at megbrown@thurberhouse.org.
