Weekly Writing Prompt:

It’s officially the winter holiday season!

To get in the spirit, create a Hallmarkesque script for a cheesy holiday film.

Put on your creative director’s hat and develop a script that embraces (or rejects) all the classic elements — snowy small towns, unexpected romance, family gatherings, and the magic of the season.

Submit your response by Dec 3, 2023 by emailing it directly to info@adirondackcenterforwriting.org. You may copy your text into the body of an email or attach it in a word document. All creative writing responses will be shared on @adkctr4writing and adirondackcenterforwriting.org. Note: You are expected to edit your own submission before sending it.

This Friday will feature a talk with Amy Godine, author of The Black Woods, at 6 PM. Focusing on the under-told stories of marginalized communities, Godine celebrates the Adirondacks as diverse, vivid and dramatic as the wild land itself. Godine will share about her book and then take questions from the audience. Copies of The Black Woods will be available for purchase.
