Equator Education Writers' Workshops
Writers’ Workshops designed to build enthusiasm and expertise.
Dedicated to writers from age 3 to 103!
We offer tried and true educational materials to promote good writing. Visit our shop
Is there a writer trapped inside of you, just waiting to get out?
How about your children or students? Do they see writing as a laborious bore or a labor of love?
Writers’ Workshops are an effective way for teachers to try firsthand strategies that will move students from resistant writers to eager storytellers.
Whether you’re a classroom teacher or an aspiring writer, hosting a Writers’ Workshop could be all the inspiration you need to get started.
Writers’ Workshop Topics include:
Focus on Fiction
Review the greatest examples of classic fiction to determine what makes them great, and then learn how to turn real life into page turning fiction.
The Writer’s Voice
When should you use the first person? What perspective works best for the piece you are writing? It all depends on “who” you are and what you’re trying to convey.
ABCs of Character Building
The list of unforgettable characters in fiction is long and impressive. Imagine a room filled with the likes of Ignatius J. Reilly, Scout Finch, and Walter Mitty. Whether
outrageous or insightful, lovable or detestable, the characters you create should be unforgettable.
Dynamics of Dialogue
Let those unforgettable characters tell the story for you. Conversations and think-alouds are sometimes the best way to reveal a character’s heart and soul. Let your
characters do the “telling” while you do the “showing” and create dialogue worthy of a stage play.
Publishing Tips: From Idea to ISBN
So you’ve got a suitcase full of unpublished poems, song lyrics, and short stories? Don’t end up like Jimmy Buffett’s “Death of an Unpopular Poet”! Move to the next
phase of your writing career and become a published author.
Exciting Writing
Learn how to build suspense and create action-packed, breath-taking scenes. Oh yeah, and catch the excitement of writing itself!
Writers’ Workshops can be customized to suit your needs. Contact us for more information.
