Write for the Stage

If you’ve got a story to tell, you’re in the right place! Write for the Stage is for kids with something to say.

Hi world! I'm Nicole, and I'm a playwright. I’ve been teaching young people to write their own plays for more than 10 years, and now I’m here (on the internet!) to help you share YOUR ideas. Check it out: https://t.co/u406XpJDE9 #artsed #playwrightsoftwitter

The biggest part of a playwright’s job is telling actors WHAT to say. But we also flex our creativity by deciding HOW those actors say our words. Learn what “stage directions” are, and write your own! https://t.co/GO1qGxLXSf #playwriting #creativewritingforkids #kidswriting

Alma Sofia Esperanza José Pura Candela worries that her name is too long - until she learns that every part of it has a story to tell. @juanamartinez's picture book is available in English AND Spanish! 😀 https://t.co/km6nfiMNpO and https://t.co/jWOfZr1e5H (Photo by Jade Beall)

In @MyBrownBaby's delightful picture book FRESH PRINCESS, a cool girl finds her courage in a new city — with a little help from her family. And yes, 90s kids, it’s inspired by “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.” 🕶 https://t.co/r0niRI3Cio (Photo by Audra Melton)

Author @rajanilarocca has published 6 picture books, 3 middle grade novels, and received a Newbery Honor award. Oh, and she’s ALSO A DOCTOR. 🤯 It was SO fun to interview Rajani, and I hope you’ll check out the video! https://t.co/NxLYnpFWaW #writersonwriting #kidlit

For many kids, the end of summer means saying goodbye to family that lives far away. In @rajanilarocca's sweet picture book, Jyoti says “poitu varen” instead — Tamil that translates literally to “I’ll go and come back.” 🧡 https://t.co/a54yRCteBh (Photo: Carter Hasegawa)

I’m taking a break! Write for the Stage will be away from social media for the month of August.
If you're hungry for more writing while I'm gone, catch up on the videos you've missed at https://t.co/hHjPxCzEPR.
I hope you get a chance to take a break too — you deserve it! 🧡

“Just start writing, and don’t really put any judgements on yourself about whether it’s good or bad.” @EngageReaders
In my interview with middle grades author Lisa Stringfellow, we talk @NaNoWriMo, her early appetite for reading, and Black Girl Magic! https://t.co/razrMuVwgj

This is my amazing 6th grade teacher, Mrs. Carpousis. I remember writing a dialogue between Socrates and Plato for a history project in her class — how cool is that???
