Jeanice Lee talks to Keren Taylor, Executive Director and Founder of WriteGirl. WriteGirl is a mentoring program as well as a writing program that matches teen girls 13-18 years old with acclaimed and accomplished women writers who have a passion for writing. The teens work one on one with a mentor, but they also attend workshops where they get an opportunity to learn song writing, poetry, screen writing etc. Taylor encourages women to volunteer and teen girls to get involved even if they are not confident in their writing skills. WriteGirl offers all their services for free. (WriteGirl.org)
