Cabin 6: The Whole Novel Workshop Cabin
Celebrating our long history of the Whole Novel Workshop at Boyds Mills with the generous support of Sarah Aronson, novelists can now stay in our Whole Novel Workshop Cabin!
“Committing to time away takes sacrifice. It takes planning. But it is so worth it. Because it also gives you time to put your writing first. It takes away all the worries of every other day and lets you safely focus on your story. It is a really nice way of saying: I am a writer and I DESERVE THIS. I love this magical place, and I wish I could share it with every one of you.”—Sarah Aronson
Established By Sarah Aronson
Sarah Aronson began writing for kids and teens when someone in an exercise class dared her to try. Since then, she has earned an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults and published a variety of books for kids and teens from Head Case, to Beyond Lucky, The Wish List series, as well as Just Like Rube Goldberg, illustrated by Robert Neubecker, Brand New Bubbe, illustrated by Ariel Landy, and Abzuglutely!: Battling, Bellowing Bella Abzug, illustrated by Andrea D’Aquino.
When Sarah is not writing or reading (or making great soup or riding her bike along Lake Michigan), she is talking to readers about creativity, writing, social action, and of course, sparkle power! She loves working with other writers one on one or in one of her classes at the amazing Boyds Mills. Warning: When she gets really excited, she makes funny faces and talks with her hands. Don’t be shocked if she talks about the power of play.
In March 2024, Sarah was awarded the Prairie Writer Award for contributions to literature and literacy. She lives in Chicago, Illinois.
