The Young Writers Workshops, sponsored by Stony Brook Southampton’s Creative Writing MFA and the Young Artists and Writers Project (YAWP), will be held online this summer.
The workshops are dedicated to mentoring young people in the development of creative expression and critical thinking through writing, pairing seasoned writing instructors and adult writers with students, ages 13-18, in fiction, essay, poetry and scriptwriting.
Student work is eligible for publication in the EZine sponsored and curated through the MFA program and YAWP. All workshops will be conducted via Zoom.
