Writer's Hook: A One-Day Write-a-thon for High School Writers
A free Bay Area writing day for high school students, combining drafting sprints, craft workshops, mentorship, meals, and a closing showcase.
Field notes
The program is structured around timed production: an initial prompt, a no-editing first draft, a longer second sprint, craft instruction, mentor feedback, and a final revision period. The page lists eligibility as grades 9–12 and says admission includes workshops, meals, snacks, and prizes at no cost. Its 2026 schedule is explicitly provisional, while the site already provides an FAQ, code of conduct, AI policy, and mentor and sponsor pathways.
