**Desire and Rejection**
2008-09 Girls Write Now Editing Workshop


Editing Workshop

“You must want to enough. Enough to take all the rejections, enough to pay the price of disappointment and discouragement while you are learning. Like any other artist, you are learning your craft- then you can add all the genius you like.” -- Phyllis Whitney

“The beautiful part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. You can always do it better, find the exact word, the apt phrase, the leaping simile.” -- Robert Cormier


These few words from fellow writers completely capture the essence of this workshop, designed to help mentors and mentees successfully harness the desire to create art to the craftsman-editor within to help them create something amazing. Highlights:

What does it take to turn a story idea into a dramatic script? At this meeting GWN Playwriting Workshop leaders will develop writing exercises, activities and more to help mentees and mentors learn the art and craft of developing stories for the stage.
