Are you a young (14- to 19-year-old) writer? Do you write SF, fantasy, and/or horror? Then you have a month left to apply for the 2013 Alpha Workshop, a yearly 10-day writers' workshop for teen authors. This year's author guests are Tamora Pierce, Scott Westerfield, and Theodora Goss; each one will teach for two days. The workshop takes place in Pittsburgh in summer and concludes with attendance at Confluence, a literary sci-fi convention. The deadline for applications is March 3, and you will need to submit an original short story of between 2000 and 6000 words (no fan fic or derivative works; this has to be entirely your own creation.) So rev up your keyboard or break out your pencil and paper and start writing (or revising) your entry!
Disclaimer: I have no relationship with the Alpha workshop; I'm just passing along the information for any interested young authors.

I love to hear what you have to say -- really! Unfortunately, I've been getting a lot of spam in addition to your wonderful comments, so I've had to turn on comment moderation. That means your comment may not post right away. I promise I'll post it -- and answer it -- as soon as I can!
