Why We Love Written Out Loud
Witness the magic of our program through the eyes of our biggest fans: our storytellers.
-
"Written Out Loud has made me feel very proud of who I am, and also has kind of changed my mindset to I can, instead of I could. It has made me really believe in myself, especially from the very start."
Hannah Gregory - Author of Enemies
-
"It’s a very supportive community and you might have goals of becoming a writer, but Written Out Loud actually helps you achieve them. It really helps you learn to love writing more because you have all these like great friends that you make, and like this community of people who actually enjoy writing along with you."
Aanya Ballesteros-Pattanayak - Author of The Black Dahlia
-
"You think that writing by yourself is the best way to do it, but when you have a group you have more insight of what you should be doing with your book, and you have advice."
Gemma Olson - Author of The Crown of Crows
-
"This [program] wasn’t in person. It wasn't necessarily about the distance, it was about the teamwork because of the distance."
Sophia Langford - Author No Other Four-Leg Fire-Breather

"Sometimes when you write stories, you have to write about a specific topic that other people tell you to do. At Written Out Loud you can write about whatever you want to. And the best thing is that other people’s ideas–you can combine your idea with to make it an even better idea."

"With Written Out Loud all your shared ideas and life experiences come together to form one character. There's just something magical about it, not in the way we write, the way we come together."

What Parents are Saying
-
"The most impressive part for me is the collective spirit and collaborative nature of the WOL structure. Unlike most youth writing programs which are built around individual competition and elimination of the rest the writers, WOL has adopted and applied the true spirit of team work: the storytellers are expected and encouraged to hear and incorporate each others' vision in one collaborative story. This makes the experience wholesome and quite rewarding in a human way."

"Just over a week ago, I sat and listened to my daughter, Saramarie, finish her 3rd Written Out Loud class. I can not begin to adequately describe how magical these classes are. She finds teachers who enthusiastically teach all the elements of good story writing in ways that build on student ideas and enthusiasm rather than preaching boring concepts that students listen to but may or may not apply to their own writing. They do this all while building a cohesive community of writers. Now, even outside of class, I hear her using the terms and concepts she has learned in her WOL classes. The look on Saramarie’s face when she opened the package with each book is beyond description. Her pride and excitement seeing her name on a published book is only paled in comparison to her pride in telling people she is a published author and showing them the books."

"A lightness has come upon Hannah. She is more confident. She is truly happy. My cup overflows with gratitude for Written Out Loud."
