About
Writing Tips – Teen Authors – And More…
Once upon a time in a world far away, there lived a blogger. Well . . . three bloggers to be exact. They joined forces and created Teen Writers’ Nook.
Teen Writers’ Nook is a website devoted to encouraging young writers to find their voice, with writing advice and positive encouragement. Our focus is to help teen authors find their creativity and grow in their writing. Stay tuned for exciting resources. No matter if you’ve written one page, one chapter, or finished a novel, Teen Writers’ Nook is here to help you!
OUR MISSION:
At Teen Writers’ Nook we are all about support and growth. Writing is hard and often perceived as a lonely and challenging process. Finishing a novel is hard, publishing is hard, getting your books in the hands of readers is even harder. Some aspiring authors have no clue where to start, and many find themselves at the point of discouragement, ready to give up. But we believe it doesn’t have to be that way! It doesn’t matter what art form you’re trying to create, what dreams you have, or what career you’ve chosen, everyone needs someone to help them along the way. And that includes writers, wether that’s with encouragement, writing tips, community, or guidance. We believe the best written works are still to come, and it starts with our young writers. Our goal is to challenge teen authors to take their dreams seriously, pursue it with purpose, and reach heights they never imagined they could make before. We get excited when we here our readers say they have found a new love for writing, the motivation to complete their next novel, or have even found publishing opportunities. This is what we strive to see happen in the next generation of authors with passion and dedication. You don’t have to do this alone, you don’t have to continue wandering with no direction. We’re here. And we’re ready to see what the future has in store for you!

Madeleine Perry | TWN writer
Madeleine loves to write magical fantasy, historical fiction, and poetry putting Christian values in them. She is an animal lover and enjoys putting them in her stories. She writes to bring her stories to life. Her favorite books are anything about Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family, plus Narnia and Harry Potter.
Issabelle Perry | TWN writer & tech manager
Issabelle Perry is a proud Jesus follower, an extroverted novelist, and a history major. When she’s not writing, you can find her reading, jamming to Skillet, hunting for Narnia in wardrobes, or envisioning herself wielding a magnificent sword (but due to her clumsiness, let’s hope that never happens). This self-proclaimed exclamation mark enthusiast can be found hanging at Teen Writers’ Nook, a community of teen authors Issabelle co-founded in 2020. She is the author of Don’t Let Me Go (Sky’s the Limit Press 2025), May We Make Them Proud (2023), and a co-editor for two anthologies. What she’s probably doing right now is fangirling about her favorite books to random people or scanning the pantries for chocolate.

Victoria Crooks is a homeschooled grad, psych major, and follower of Jesus.
