In our last Writing 360 workshop of the year, TV writer, Naomi G. Davis, will share her knowledge of story building, guide us through concepts of how to find ideas and share her experience working on shows like The Endgame, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and The Get Down. Participants will write about a personal experience in their life, then share these memories in small group “writers rooms”, where they will collaboratively create the next hit TV show! “Writers room” groups will then share their TV show pitches with Naomi and the other “writers rooms”. Join us to discover how your life has the potential to be a story on the screen!

Come explore the ways you can bring your own perspective and collaborate from mentees past!
In this workshop, Mentees and Mentee alum will unlock their confidence, discover professional best practices, and learn to leverage their already existing network of family, friends, teachers, and of course each other.

Prior to the session’s close, mentees will have the opportunity to apply their new networking savvy by committing to connect with at least one other mentee in attendance and drafting a follow up message!
At our first Writing 360 workshop, mentees and mentors will delve into true crime as a subject, with the specific aim of creating poetry that honors victims and their stories. This generative poetry workshop will explore the ways that poetry can act as a social justice and activism device in the context of true crime, and how we can uplift the stories of true crime victims that often go untold.
