I don't get why it bounced back. THe PP workshops sound too high class for us. We look for hands-on kinds of workshops -- the creative writing would be great as a possibility. I think we had someone do something like that once that went over very well. I work at the Judge Baker Children's Center, Media Center. I think you can reach me thru that website. I don't mean to get all paranoid, but as I was going to type my email address in here I thought maybe that wasn't the best idea. JBCC is at www.jbcc.harvard.edu. We're looking to get the girls to use their voices -- not so much paper writing and formal things. We sponsored an essay contest called "Walk a Mile in My Shoes" and some (but not all) of the girls at the conference will have written for that. If by "creative" you mean "fiction," that would be a great addition to the program. (I'm trusting Hermione to screen out the serial killers who volunteer :) And hey, I'm a Simmons grad, so already I like you. There's information about last year's essay contest at: http://www.jbcc.harvard.edu/news/jan10.htm Are you still interested? I check this site often as I have no life of my own ;)
