About Woven Word Creative Writing Workshops
In The Home & In The Classroom
|
Woven Word Young Writers Workshop is dedicated to fostering a love of creative writing in young writers ages 7-18. Woven Word Young Writers offers after school and home school workshops which meet weekly in Hadley and on Zoom throughout the academic year. Woven Word creates a writing environment infused with fun and challenge. Inventive prompts and positive feedback are offered to help writers understand the strengths of their work. Together we build a writers community.
During the summer Woven Word offers week-long full day programs featuring a river houseboat for a fun, intensive writing adventure. If you'd like to learn more about Woven Word Summers on the Houseboat, go to "Woven Word Summer Program" or click here. If you'd like to see how Woven Word works as an ongoing workshop, see "Woven Word Workshops" or click here. Woven Word also offers in-school programs that serve as a workshop for students and a teacher training. Woven Word helps students improve confidence, fluency, and enjoyment in their writing.

I've been circling for thousands of years
and I still don't know: am I a falcon,
a storm, or a great song?"
