Course Description

This Open-Series Creative Writing Hangout space for teen boys and girls offers time to work on current (or new) writing projects in a group setting where teens can both inspire others and be inspired by others. Join as many sessions as you'd like. The writing in this course should reflect Christian values. Each session will include: ★ Introductions of teens and the writing project they are working on ★ Time to work on writing projects while visiting with other teens ★ Sharing Time for teens who would like to share some of their writing Writing projects encouraged in this space include: ✨ Poetry ✨ Essays ✨ Novels ✨ Letters ✨ Journals ✨ Short stories NOTE: Minimal writing instruction will be offered in this class. Writers should come to class knowing how to work on their project. I offer several writing courses where writing skills are taught. These classes can be taken prior to joining the Creative Writing Hangout: • The Art Of Personal Letter Writing • Journaling Adventure: Explore Six Types of Journaling • Poetry Writing Adventures: Acrostic, Alphabet, Diminishing, Echo • Poetry Writing Basics: Elements Of Poetry & Creative Writing Projects • The Art of Storytelling: Turn Personal Experiences into Powerful Stories • Treasure Maps & Poetry: Enter the Creative World of Robert Louis Stevenson Don't currently have a project to work on? Join the class to be inspired, and let the writing fun begin! We hope that you'll join us in this creative space.

Content Considerations

Participants are asked to not include sensitive topics like hot-button political issues in the writing that is shared in class. All writing shared should encourage, lift, and inspire. Participants are asked to not include profanity, violence, or magic in the writing that is shared in class.
