Join The Doylestown Bookshop’s Summer Workshop Series as we host various authors who will present a variety of topics for upcoming, newly published, or seasoned writers. We are excited to offer our first Lit Lab workshop for Young Writers. While this workshop will be specifically geared toward teens and young adults interested in creative writing, participants of all ages are welcome.
This workshop requires tickets. There are multiple options, listed below. The ticket options that include books offer excellent value, as the authors will personally sign the books, and additional books purchased at The Doylestown Bookshop during the evening of the workshop.
Ticket Options:
General Admission - $20
General Admission + Once Bitten, Twice Dead by Tiffany Schmidt - $30
Space is limited; tickets are non-refundable. If you're unable to attend the workshop, we will hold your books for you.
Using Fandoms and Fanfiction to Jumpstart Your Writing
So many teens want to write, but struggle with how to begin—or, once they’ve begun, they get stuck in the murky middle and never reach "the end.” This workshop will teach them tips and structures for outlining a whole plot and how to analyze the fandoms they’re already a part of to increase their interest in reaching that final chapter. Whether it’s Taylor Swift, or video games, a TV show, or a sports team—there’s room for fan fiction as inspiration in all sorts of writing.
