Young Writer's Workshop
Come join us for three exhilarating days of creative writing instruction.
The Minneapolis Young Writers Workshop (June 13-15, 2017 hosted by North Central University, Minneapolis) connects motivated young writers ages 13-19 with bestselling authors who are gifted with the ability to write and teach.
Focused tracks allow you to learn from an author who writes in your genre.
Our faculty includes Sabaa Tahir (The Ember and the Ashes), Ally Condie (Matched), Shannon Hale (Princess Academy), Wayne Thomas Batson (The Door Within) and Jonathan Friesen (Jerk, California) and more.
Do you attend WEST?
Are you a teen who puts your feelings down on paper?
Not only will you have the opportunity to learn from successful authors, you'll have the chance to receive feedback on your work. We believe that young adults have important stories to tell-so important that we'll place selected manuscripts on the desks of editors from major publishing houses.
Does your story sparkle? Imagine an acquisitions editor from HarperCollins or Amazon reading your chapters. That’s how book contracts are born. Last year, several teen novels were birthed at the conference.
Take advantage of our early bird discount.
