Creative Writing Exploration for Teens encourages students to expand their creative writing by challenging them to elevate their creative voices with new writing techniques.

During class, students learn literary craft techniques through lessons, exercises, and prompts. Popular topics include villain archetypes, magic system basics, how to write a fight scene, poetry, screenwriting, and more! At the end of class, students are given time to write and share their work. Our final class on November 16 is a student reading where family and friends are invited to attend. This final class reading is in-person only.

This class is open to teens, from 13 to 17, and is a hybrid class, meaning students can join online or in-person. Because The Muse wants our classes to be accessible to all, our youth classes are “pay what you can”, meaning you name the price you can afford, as high or low as it may be, no questions asked.

Come meet your muse at the Muse Writers Center!
