Welcome to The Young Writers Workshop, an ONLINE creative writing studio with Brendan Constantine. In these sessions (for beginning and advanced writers), we’ll explore poetry and storytelling, their history, and even create the genres of the future. No previous experience is needed. The final Saturday will not be a regular class but we will have a virtual, public reading of our work together.

What does it mean to write with the environment? How does the environment shape the content and form of our work? This workshop will focus on environmental writing across genres and how they can contribute to our overall practice of writing eco-literature.
