JOIN THE MOVEMENT
The #TeenWritersProject Teen Editorial Board is a highly collaborative creative opportunity for teens to gain experience in leadership, life skill development, community service and reading, writing, social and cultural literacy. Not only will you work collaboratively with other teen and adult members to brainstorm and develop programming, you will develop, create and publish the #TeenWritersProject eZine, newsletter and annual anthology, and actively engage with teens to recruit, encourage, support, lead and have creative fun!
The #TeenWritersProject is for teens who are reading, writing and arts enthusiasts. You need not be a writer or artist to apply. Once accepted, Teen Board members will be required to attend all scheduled meetings, except in the case of dire circumstances. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis and are considered as they arrive.

LEADERS
Kendall writes poetry and short stories on human emotions, history, life experiences, and societal struggles. The creativity and possibilities never end for her and spills over into her love of baking, designing, editing, reading, learning and cinematography. Some call it an obsession, Kendall calls it being a connoisseur of documented beauty.
