Young writers in middle school through high school from Michigan's Eastern Upper Peninsula have contributed short stories and poetry to the most recent Pickford Community Library's Young Writers Workshop Anthology. Genres include sports fiction, paranormal, fantasy, and young adult romance.Young writers in middle school through high school from Michigan's EUP (Eastern Upper Peninsula) have contributed short stories and poetry to the most recent Pickford Community Library's Young Writers Workshop Anthology. They have attended biweekly writing lessons at the library from October 2015 through May 2016, the culmination of which is publication of their creative talents in this year's anthology. The Young Writers Workshop, now having completed its fourth year, is a result of a teen's request in 2012 for a writing program at the local community library. Two members of JLB Creatives Publishing, both authors themselves, one from Brimley, Michigan, and one from Astatula, Florida, agreed to form the group and enlighten the aspiring writers by using electronic conferencing to teach the sessions. The EUP writing enthusiasts learn everything from concept to publication and beyond; they go from basic sentence structure to the ins and outs of becoming published authors, including such topics as interpreting publishing contracts, creating book trailers, and handling rejection slips from publishers. Please take a look at what can be accomplished by young people who have a strong desire to share the stories in their heads with readers like you.
