Erin Entrada Kelly

Erin Entrada Kelly leads writing and storytelling workshops from her base in Philadelphia, building on her experience as a Newbery Medal recipient and professor of children's literature. Her curriculum spans foundational elements of fiction craft, including character development, plot architecture, and cross-genre narrative techniques. The workshops integrate live instruction with guided writing exercises, available in both group and individual formats. Kelly structures her educational programs around three core components: technical skill development, creative exploration, and professional manuscript preparation. Her teaching methodology draws from both academic pedagogy and hands-on publishing industry insights. Workshop participants engage with material through a combination of craft lectures, writing prompts, and peer review sessions. The author maintains an active role in literary community building through educational outreach and charitable initiatives. She regularly contributes to LGBTQ+ advocacy efforts through fundraising events and literary auctions. Her digital resource hub consolidates access to instructional materials, workshop schedules, and philanthropic projects.
