Description
Here’s something the adults in your life might not be telling you: you don’t have to wait until you’re older to be a ‘real writer.’ If you write, you’re a writer. Period. And if you’re a teenager with stories to tell, this planner is your launchpad. Designed specifically for young creatives ages 13-17, this planner skips the patronizing tone of most ‘teen writing’ resources and gives you the same quality of craft tools the adults get — just calibrated for your stage of creative development. Inside you’ll find a ‘What Do I Even Want to Write?’ exploration section for figuring out your genre, format, and voice, a project planner for taking your best idea from concept to completed draft, daily and weekly writing trackers that work around your school schedule, writing prompts that aren’t boring or generic, a ‘Creative Identity’ journal for figuring out who you are as a writer, a feedback processing guide for handling criticism from teachers, peers, and workshop groups, a teen-friendly publishing and sharing guide (literary magazines, writing contests, online platforms, zines), and L.A. Walton’s signature encouragement: direct, warm, funny, and honest. Your stories matter NOW. Not someday. Now. Let’s get them written.
