Join us for a summer teen writing retreat from the Atlanta Writers Club!
A day-long writing retreat designed for teens. It's a fun way to build their writing skills and also get more out of the reading they have to do for school and want to do for enjoyment.
Presenters are published authors and members of the Atlanta Writers Club.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a tablet, laptop, or writing pad and pen along with basic art supplies if you want to express your ideas visually.
