Creative Writing Classes for Kids & Teens, Taught by Real Authors
At WordPlay Writing Co., we believe that every young writer deserves a space where their creativity is taken seriously, their ideas are celebrated, and their voice matters. Our classes are taught by award-winning published authors who know firsthand how powerful storytelling can be—for confidence, for communication, and for self-expression. Whether a learner is shy, wildly imaginative, reluctant, or already drafting their tenth novel, we meet them exactly where they are.
We offer a wide range of virtual live and asynchronous creative writing classes for kids, tweens, and teens—from weekly short story workshops and fandom-inspired sessions to full multi-level curricula that guide writers from beginner skills all the way to advanced, publishable work. Every class is centered on output rather than worksheets: students spend their time writing, talking about craft, and exploring stories that excite them. We also host cozy book clubs, writing camps, downloadable curricula, and even student anthologies that give young authors a chance to see their work in print.
Above all, WordPlay is a supportive, inclusive community. We avoid gatekeeping, celebrate each writer’s quirks, and focus on building confidence through thoughtful, encouraging feedback. Here, learners can try ideas, take risks, and be beautifully, wonderfully weird. Writing isn’t about perfection—it’s about expression, connection, and joy—and we’re here to help kids discover that every single day.
