Gifted Atlanta

Emerging middle-school writers can learn from a pro in a creative writing class at the Little Shop of Stories, an independent children’s bookstore in downtown Decatur.

The instructor is Terra Elan McVoy, author of three novels for young readers and program director of the Decatur Book Festival. The class will meet on Mondays from 4:30-5:45, beginning on Oct. 3, 2011. The cost is $200.

(Parents, if you’d like to model lifelong learning for your kids, they’re offering a writing class for adults, too.)
