Online Writing Workshops for Children, Young Adults and Adults

Posted 2009-03-24 09:17 by Simon Rose

Give your aspiring young authors the unique opportunity to work with a published author by employing an online writer in residence, right in your own home. Many children are interested in writing, but often they need help to channel their ability in a particular direction and give them the encouragement they need to move forward. Having access to professional advice can encourage a child in their creativity, whatever form that may take. Through a series of e mail assignments, we explore where ideas come from and how to turn them into stories, basic story structure, plot development, creating characters, developing dialogue and more to help develop writing ability.
