SJAWP Novel Writing Program: Writer’s Salon & Workshop Calling all teen writers who want a community with whom to share writing without the commitment of a full length course! Our Teen Writer's Salon is a space in which students can write alongside other teens and workshop writing while making friends with other budding novelists. Our Writer's Salon will meet three times this fall for live zoom sessions that begin with a prompt and writing warm up followed by student readings of works in progress. We have built this space to allow students to stay connected to our Teen Writer's Institute programs and to experience the writing community offered by our Novel Writing Program. There will be no set lectures or assignments; rather, in this course, students will write together and receive peer feedback in a process facilitated by our author in residence, Hannah Jayne. Come join us and walk away with notes on a piece of writing, a peer group connected by the common pursuit of a creative writing life, and a clearer idea of how to make writing fit into your busy lifestyle! Zoom Classes will be held on Saturdays with tentative dates: September 19 October 24 November 14 December 12 from 10:30AM-12PM
