Just Write Sacramento is a week-long summer writing program for high school students who like to write, but might need a bit of direction when it comes to craft. Under the guidance of experienced writers, both professional and academic, students will explore their creative writing interests with like-minded young writers. While experimenting with genre, form, style, and word choice, they will learn how to identify and showcase a successful piece of writing.

Spread the word to anyone you know who might be interested -- high school students (ages 14-17) with an interest in writing, or parents of high school students. Just Write Sacramento was designed and coordinated by Janna Santoro, who intends to make this an annual conference with hopes of cultivating and nurturing creative writing in the Sacramento area. Also teaching will be Bridget Mabunga. Both Santoro and Mabunga are members of Writers in Progress, the summer writing workshop I attend.
