Interested in giving back to the community and nurturing young writers? The MWA Teen Writing Program is seeking new club leaders around the state. Our teen clubs bring together young writers, typically ages twelve to eighteen, in a supportive, collaborative atmosphere. Club leaders guide teens on the craft of creative writing, encouraging them to explore various genres and techniques and to critique each other. Leaders help teens on various elements of creative writing—crafting vivid prose, developing a story arch, using dialogue, etc. Most importantly, the clubs are not writing classes; they provide a platform for teens to build their confidence and make friends. we are currently looking for new leaders for our Chevy Chase and Annapolis clubs.
If you are interested in leading a club, or want to learn more, please send an email to teenwriters@marylandwriters.org.
