Unlock Your Roar is made possible through a partnership with the Midwest Writing Center.
Every good story, film, play, or movie has movement. What happens when you find the movement in your story and your writing? Unlocking your roar is finding yourself inside your personal narrative. This workshop will empower you through a variety of writing exercises and four movements. When you leave this workshop, you will have at least four poems that will help you unlock the roar in your personal narrative!
If you're Age 13 -18, REGISTER NOW!
