Every story begins with a question, an image, a character or a possibility. Summer Story Studio helps young writers turn those beginnings into original stories while developing creativity, critical thinking and confidence in their own voice. Through guided prompts, discussion, writing exercises and personalized feedback, students learn how to develop ideas, create compelling characters, build stronger scenes and discover what makes their writing uniquely their own.
Group Workshops
Students can join a scheduled workshop or assemble their own group of friends, siblings, classmates or fellow writers. Whether they're exploring a new idea, developing a short story or preparing for a writing competition, workshops combine guided instruction, writing time, discussion and feedback in a supportive creative environment.
Available online, in person or in a hybrid format.
Private Coaching
For writers seeking individualized support, private coaching offers personalized guidance tailored to each student's interests, goals and experience level.
Whether developing a story from the ground up, refining a work in progress or strengthening specific writing skills, students receive one-on-one feedback, encouragement and practical strategies to help them grow as writers.
Available online, in person or in a hybrid format.
First-Draft Sessions and Ongoing Mentorships
Choose the level of support that works best for you.
A First-Draft Session provides focused guidance in a single session designed to generate ideas, overcome obstacles and build momentum.
Mentorships offer ongoing support through multiple sessions, providing accountability, feedback and encouragement as writers develop their work and strengthen their craft over time.
