Texas Teen Book Festival and Barrio Writers are teaming up to offer a free writing workshop during Festival weekend! Taking place on Saturday, October 31, at 1 p.m., this hour-long virtual workshop, youth writers will explore blackout or erasure poetry and how it can be used to express a poetic message across cultural and historical contexts. They will use a topical article about the pandemic to create their own blackout poems and reflect on their experiences during the current times.

Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to sharpen your writing. If you’re interested, register here!
