First Tuesday of every month from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm - older teens are welcome to attend the regular Writer's Circle, if they choose, from 7:00 pm - 8:45 pm. ***OCTOBER MEETING - WILL BE HELD IN THE MAIN BOARD ROOM AT THE STRATHCONA COUNTY HEALTH CENTER - 2 Brower Drive, Sherwood Park - on Baseline Road.

Youth who enjoy writing are encouraged to join the Writers Foundation of Strathcona County. The Young Writers Group - Writing Rocks! - will operate under the guidance of established WFSC members.  Do you have a passion for words? We will mentor young writers and provide positive encouragement in creative writing projects. If the group is interested in running their own meetings, we will help set up protocol and suggest content to make this a positive writing experience.

Student Membership fees are only $10. Additional fees will apply if workshops, speakers or one-on-one sessions are requested. 

The WFSC and its mentors will not provide editing or reading services on school-related projects. We will offer direction and open a discussion on projects so the student gains a personal perspective on their own abilities  as a writer and develops their own creative writing style and voice.

Many of the members of the WFSC have been published; many have been or are teachers; some write for their professions; ALL HAVE A PASSION FOR THE WRITTEN WORD and support community efforts to involve youth in cultural arts programs.

Keep on writing because ...
