Girls Write Now is an organization which matches New York City high school girls with professional women writers. Through one-on-one mentoring, it aims to help the girls express themselves and find their voice through creative writing.
Tomorrow the girls will be reading original works at the Barnes & Noble in Astor Place from 4-6. The theme of the program, "Behind My Eyes", actually comes from a piece written by a student from the school I'll be teaching in. This girl has been in this country for less than four years and is already a superstar!
