If
so, the Maryland Writing Project’s Student Writers’
Workshop is for you. Students who love to write will expand and
develop their writing of choice in a supportive and creative environment.
This stimulating writing workshop on the Towson University campus
will help you develop your poetry, short stories, novels, or scripts.
You will have the opportunity to work in a professional writer’s
environment, and, like a “real” writer, you will choose
your own topics, have free writing time, work at your own pace,
refine your work, and decide which pieces to publish.
|
 |
 |
The
Student Writers’ Workshop is divided into groups based on
age. Two Maryland Writing Project Teacher-Consultants, experienced
teachers and writers themselves, will work with each group, sharing
their expertise through direct writing instruction and guided individual
and peer-group writing conferences. The ratio of student writers
to teachers is no more than 12 to 1. Following the end of this three-week
workshop, your writing will be published in an anthology that will
be sent to your home.
|
 |
| So come
to the Towson University campus or one of our other sites for this creative writing
experience. For three weeks, read, write, and share your
writing in an atmosphere of artistic freedom, intellectual
challenge, and fun. |
