Why is it that we find some apps and websites enjoyable to use, while others make us want to throw our phones out the window? “Web design” often makes us think of aesthetics, like color and typography, but that’s only half the story. In this workshop we’ll learn about the cutting-edge field of user experience (UX) design, and how you can make your own online content—social posts, portfolio sites, maybe even that app idea you’ve been scheming, easy and fun to use.

In this workshop, we’ll focus on the technical knowledge and creative direction you need to share your creations and content on various social media platforms with pride.

At our first Editorial Workshop, current mentees will read through and select a piece written by a former mentee from the past 25 years.

Come explore the ways you can bring your own perspective and collaborate from mentees past!

In this workshop, we’ll build on the work we began last month and create writing prompts using the pieces we’ve selected and written for the HarperCollins books! We’ll synthesize our ideas into writing prompts to inspire other writers and encourage them to join in on a collaborative writing experience!
