Tomorrow's writers today

The Cape Cod Writers Center http://capecodwriterscenter.org/  has invited me to lead a workshop for young writers today (Saturday). Spoiler alert--I make three main points:

• Good writing is simple.
• Reading and writing go together.
• To be a writer you must practice writing.

The students are between 12 and 17, which is quite a range. I also did this last March, and it was lots of fun. The students are very engaged and dedicated. It is an honor to work with them.
