Are you a teen (or know a teen to share this event with) who writes for fun or wants to start? This workshop is for you!
Students with an interest in creative writing are invited to attend a Teen Writers Workshop at Whiting Library on Wednesday, November 3, 2021 from 4:30 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. at 117 Main Street in Chester. Whiting Library is hosting this writer's workshop for youth in grades 9 through 12.
A mix of free-writing and sharing, the workshop will develop writing skills and practices in a supportive and welcoming environment. Participants should bring a notebook and a written piece they are currently working on, or planning to start. Teen writers of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry are invited to attend.
"The Teen Writing Workshop is a chance for young writers to develop their voice in a fun and low-key environment. Being around other people who like to write can be really motivating and encourage your creative process. Don't be shy—sign up!" said Rosamund Conroy, the workshop instructor. Ms. Conroy is a Whiting Library Trustee, writer and former director of Summer Ink, a youth writing program.
Young writers may choose to submit a piece to the Vermont High School Writing Contest following the workshop. Contact Carrie King, Youth Librarian to register by calling the library at 875-2277 or emailing whitinglibrary3@gmail.com. You do not have to be a Whiting Library patron to attend the workshop, it is open to all area teens.
