Spy Fiction Workshop for Young Authors!

Boys and girls ages nine to fourteen who love mystery and creative writing won't want to miss a unique creative writing workshop for young writers led by award-winning novelist Jennifer Allison at the International Spy Museum. Advance registration is required for this one-day workshop (contact www.spymuseum.org). What’s so different about this writer’s workshop? Young writers will learn the craft of fiction writing through the lens of spy tradecraft – the techniques real spies use to create a “cover identity” and run a dangerous mission. Writing will be interspersed with hands-on opportunities to create a disguise, adopt a personal “legend,” and run a mission.
