SUMMARY:Swift Youth Writers Group - Writing for Teens
DESCRIPTION:Teens in 6th – 12th grade are invited to escape into creative writing and connect with other teen writers. Each month on the 2nd Sunday (unless otherwise noted) attendees will be led through prompts and exercises to help develop and stretch their creative writing skills. Attendees will be given a chance to share their work and have a chance to support others. No experience is necessary so all skill levels are encouraged to attend. At the end of the school year\, writers will be asked to submit 1 to 3 pieces (depending on genre) for inclusion in an anthology\, and a celebratory reading will be held. \nRegistration is not necessary. Writing Sundays are FREE! For more information\, click here. \nProvided in partnership with the Ames Writers Collective and the Ames Public Library

SUMMARY:Swift Youth Writers Workshop | Grades 8-12 | June 26 to 30
DESCRIPTION:Open to 8th to 12th Graders\nFive consecutive sessions – June 26\, 27\, 28\, 29 and 30\n10:00 AM to Noon\nLocation: Ames Public Library\nFREE \n\n\nIn partnership with the Ames Public Library\, our Swift Youth Writers Workshops offer kids an escape into creative writing and the opportunity to connect with other youth writers. \n\n\nRegardless of genre\, for five days writers will come together in a safe space to read an inspirational piece of writing and write together to timed-writing prompts. At the end of each session\, writers will be invited to read aloud to the group to receive positive feedback. These sessions are based upon the Amherst Writers & Artists Method\, a methodology rooted in the belief that everyone is a writer. All feedback given is focused on the unique voice and strengths of the writer to encourage and model authenticity\, peer support\, and self-confidence. \nThese FREE sessions will be held at the Ames Public Library. The Ames Writers Collective’s Community Outreach programs are funded by our generous donors! \n\nFrom one of our previous Youth Writers: “I learned from sharing my work with the group that I’m more confident than I thought. I felt that sharing with the group allowed for fair criticism that allowed me to improve my writing and it helped boost my confidence in my work.” -RC \n\n\nEmail Us to Register Today!\nPlease include your name\, your teenager’s name\, and your phone number in your message.
