Less than ten years ago, brainy, creative high-school girls who liked to write usually spent after-school hours alone with their pens. Nowadays, LA's teen wordsmiths meet for monthly genre workshops and have their works published in an annual anthology — all thanks to WriteGirl. Founded in 2001, the mentoring organization has since paired hundreds of professional female writers with teenage girls, giving them the tools they need in order to better express themselves. This evening, Skylight Books hosts WriteGirl's fourth annual reading, where the budding Dorothy Parkers and J. K. Rowlings share their own writings with the audience.
