NEML to host young writer workshops

MILLERTON — The NorthEast-Millerton Library is hosting a NaNoWriMo young writers’ group starting Friday, Nov. 1, at 4 p.m.

NaNoWriMo embraces National Novel Writing Month by challenging writers to draft an entire novel in one month. Its website says, “For 30 wild, exciting, surprising days, you get to lock away your inner editor, let your imagination take over, and just create!”

Its young writers program aims to support children under 18 and educators as they participate in writing challenges throughout the year.

The library will host the young writers group each Friday of the month at 4 p.m., where there will be weekly check-ins to help keep writers on track and provide feedback from Hotchkiss School Creative Writing Club volunteers. All writers, not just novelists, are welcome to join.
