Calling all teen writers. Do you know a teen who loves to write? I am offering a nine-week creative writing course on Outschool entitled, Exploring Realms of Creative Writing.
During the first two weeks, we will explore writing poetry. Each student will write a small booklet of four to eight poems from free verse to more formal rhymed poetry. Students will also dabble in other forms of creative writing from short stories to creative nonfiction.
Outschool is an up and coming education site designed to connect students to unique, small online classes. I hope you will help me spread the word about this learning opportunity.
Now on to our weekly linkup. First let’s meet your hosts:

- Please remember this is a family-friendly linkup. Although we believe in the right for adults to read whatever they want to read, we prefer to read wholesome posts that feature literature that edify and uplift families. We reserve the right to delete any posts that are not family friendly. We love all kinds of literature and genres including family-friendly inspirational romances, fantasy, or science fiction. We do not welcome any posts that feature excessive violence, sexual content, or any cursing. This rule also applies to book review posts that feature books that are not family-friendly. These posts will be deleted without notice to the blogger or explanation. While we believe in the right for all adults to read whatever they want, we feel our linkup is for family-friendly posts only. Thank you for understanding.
- We also want to be loving community by supporting one another. Please make a point to do this this week! Visit the two posts before yours and at least one other blogger’s post of your choice! I want to see lots of clicks on everyone’s posts. Remember it is also nice to follow them on their social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.
