Do you have a young writer at home who dreams of being published? Have them come and write a book with other youth writers! Together, they will come up with a concept (short story collections, novel, choose your own adventure), create the characters, world, and plot, write the sections individually, and then edit together until perfect. And, it will be published!*
Campers will learn how to self-publish on Amazon's KDP platform and create all their own art, back cover synopsis, and assets. When we're not writing, we will have fabulous adventures, play beach volleyball (poorly, most likely), visit the library, and get up to other shenanigans. Youth led. Adult mentored. Join us today!
*The book we produce will be available for purchase on Amazon approximately a month after camp (our editor needs time!). We will also hold a book launch, likely in October.
PLEASE NOTE:
Campers need to have an electronic device to write on and that can connect to our Google Doc. Additionally, this is a camp for more advanced writers who have taken at least one course in creative writing OR have been writing on their own for at least 6 months.
