The AHS Writing Club offers students the opportunity to pursue writing in a safe, comfortable and encouraging environment. The Writing Club is for dedicated writers who want to pursue writing as both a hobby and a passion while also improving skills. Often, meetings start with a guided prompt and then students share and discuss. After the warm-up exercise, students form groups and provide feedback on their work. Each student brings something to workshop—a poem, essay, narrative, vignette. In addition to impromptu writing and workshopping, students discuss writers’ markets. The Writing Club builds upon topics addressed in Arrowhead’s writing courses, while also giving students the freedom to pursue different styles.
WHO: All Arrowhead students are welcome. Students can come to any/all meetings.
WHAT: Arrowhead’s Writing Club is for students seeking an outlet for expression or to improve and practice writing skills.

WHY: The goals of the club include developing writing skills; exploring writing techniques; helping students publish work; providing a place to workshop pieces in progress; and connecting students with others who enjoy writing.
