YWW

As you guys will gather from reading this blog I am part of an online writing community called the Young Writers Workshop.

I love the YWW and I just want to spread the word about this awesome place! 

Who created the Young Writers Workshop?

The YWW was set up by Brett Harris (co-author of the book Do Hard Things) and Jaquelle Crowe (author of This Changes Everything


So who is the YWW for? 

  • Any young writer aged 10-25 (But that's a rough guideline) 
  • Anybody who is on a writing journey pursuing publication
  • Anyone who is just starting their writing journey pursuing publication
  • Anybody who wants to start a writing journey pursuing publication
  • Anyone who writes just for a hobby
  • Just about any sort of young writer. 
The YWW is for any sort of writer. If you do writing seriously for a job you will benefit from it. If you do it as a hobby you will benefit from it. If you do poetry, dystopian, fantasy, sci-fi, nonfiction, blogging or any other sort of writing you will benefit from it. 

But how does YWW work?

With the basic subscription, there are two sites. One is the Content Library and the other is the YWW community (or YWWC).

The Content Library is where there are collections of video and audio lessons on all sorts of writing genres from fiction, to blogging, to non-fiction. This site includes masterclass interviews with published authors, a publishing school, writing critiques- plus the main writers boot camp, which has most of the main lessons under topics like motivation, mentorship, platform, family support, learning and more. 

The YWWC is a website on the side and it's where all the YDubbers (That's what we call YWW members) can hang out, give each other accountability, share our writing, give writing critiques, ask questions and just have fun! 

I love the YWW so much. They were there to encourage me when I was in the saddest of times (from a writing point of view). I can be really crazy around them and they won't care because, we all, as writers, are pretty crazy and they understand that. You can have fun with them. You can be sure of helpful advice from them. The lessons are super helpful. Brett and Jaquelle are awesome teachers, along with the other amazing leaders on there.

What else do they provide? 

There are three tiers of YDubs- Basic, Academic, and Author. 

Basic: The Content Library and community

Academic: Specific lessons and assignments in your chosen genre with an assigned TA, designed to help you grow and apply your knowledge, as well as the Content Library and community

Author: One on one coaching from an instructor, specific to your writing journey, as well as the Content Library and community
